Configuring the host to comply with Elasticsearch

Configuring the host to comply with Elasticsearch

Because SonarQube uses an embedded Elasticsearch, make sure that your host configuration complies with the Elasticsearch production mode requirements and File Descriptors configuration.

Configuring the maximum number of open files

Set the file limit values by running the following commands.

sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=131072

sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfilesperproc=131072

ulimit -n 131072
