TMA-COCKROACHDB-2.7
Set the File Descriptor Limit to at Least 15,000 to Accommodate Cluster Growth
Descripción
CockroachDB can use a large number of open file descriptors, often more than is available by default. Therefore, note the following recommendations. For each CockroachDB node: - At a minimum, the file descriptors limit must be 1956 (1700 per store plus 256 for networking). If the limit is below this threshold, the node will not start. - It is recommended to set the file descriptors limit to unlimited; The benchmark rates this recommendation Manual; the automated check covers its objective pass criterion. Reads the hard "Max open files" limit of the running cockroach process; it must be unlimited or at least 15000.
Cómo se verifica
Método de auditoría: Comando de shell
pid=$(pgrep -o -x cockroach) || exit 1; awk '/^Max open files/ {print ($5 == "unlimited" || $5 + 0 >= 15000) ? "compliant" : "hard limit " $5}' /proc/$pid/limits- Salida esperada
compliant
Cómo se corrige
Método de corrección: Guía o parche de infraestructura
Set LimitNOFILE=35000 (at least 15000) in the [Service] section of cockroach.service (or a hard nofile limit in /etc/security/limits.conf for non-systemd setups), raise fs.file-max if needed, then restart the node.
