如何增加允许在Linux上打开的文件数？

On my system:

在我的系统上：

$ ulimit -n
1024

Some tools like GATK are aggressive in creating temporary files by creating more than 1000 files under /tmp/. This will cause the program to fail.

某些GATK之类的工具通过在/ tmp /下创建1000多个文件来积极创建临时文件。 这将导致程序失败。

How to increase the number of files allowed to be opened on Linux?

如何增加Linux上允许打开的文件数？

To increase the max number of open files to 10240, add these 2 lines to /etc/security/limits.conf:

要将打开文件的最大数量增加到10240，请将这两行添加到/etc/security/limits.conf ：

*                hard   nofile           10240
*                soft   nofile           10240

The users may need to re-login to see the limits changed by:

用户可能需要重新登录才能查看更改的限制：

ulimit -n

You can also set more limits:

您还可以设置更多限制：

#Each line describes a limit for a user in the form:
#
#<domain>        <type>  <item>  <value>
#
#Where:
#<domain> can be:
#        - an user name
#        - a group name, with @group syntax
#        - the wildcard *, for default entry
#        - the wildcard %, can be also used with %group syntax,
#                 for maxlogin limit
#
#<type> can have the two values:
#        - "soft" for enforcing the soft limits
#        - "hard" for enforcing hard limits
#
#<item> can be one of the following:
#        - core - limits the core file size (KB)
#        - data - max data size (KB)
#        - fsize - maximum filesize (KB)
#        - memlock - max locked-in-memory addressspace (KB)
#        - nofile - max number of open files
#        - rss - max resident set size (KB)
#        - stack - max stack size (KB)
#        - cpu - max CPU time (MIN)
#        - nproc - max number of processes
#        - as - address space limit (KB)
#        - maxlogins - max number of logins for this user
#        - maxsyslogins - max number of logins on the system
#        - priority - the priority to run user process with
#        - locks - max number of file locks the user can hold
#        - sigpending - max number of pending signals
#        - msgqueue - max memory used by POSIX message queues (bytes)
#        - nice - max nice priority allowed to raise to values: [-20, 19]
#        - rtprio - max realtime priority
