Apparently, limit values are written to the /etc/sysconfig/ulimit but /etc/initscript fails to interpret them somehow. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open yast, select /etc/sysconfig editor. 2. Navigate to System->Limits->HARDFDLIMIT or SOFTFDLIMIT. 3. Specify a non-default value (e.g. 8192). 4. Save and reboot. 5. After reboot open console and type "ulimit -a | grep 'open files'". Actual Results: The output indicates that the specified limits were not applied (in my case, the output was 1024 instead of 8192). Expected Results: The limits should apply after reboot. The current workaround is to force the limit in /etc/security/limits.conf file. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
