When I start riak I get warning

WARNING: ulimit -n is 1024; 65536 is the recommended minimum.

I have added 

riak soft nofiles 65536
riak hard nofiles 65536

to /etc/security/limits.conf but it doesn't helped.

riak is runned under riak user 

$ ps au | grep riak

My question is how to make riak happy?

  • For a LDAP server on an older RHEL system, I ended up with a `ulimit -n 65536` line in its `/etc/sysconfig/dirsrv` file, though I don't know how you're starting that riak. – thrig Oct 29 '15 at 19:23
  • Riak is started with some startup script, `sudo service riak restart` reproduce my problem – talex Oct 30 '15 at 11:30
  • have you tried running `ulimit -n` and `su -c "ulimit -n" riak` to verify the settings had the desired effect? – Joe Jun 15 '16 at 19:12
