Stefan Miklosovic reassigned CASSANDRA-14500:
---------------------------------------------
Assignee: Stefan Miklosovic (was: Lerh Chuan Low)
> Debian package to include systemd file and conf
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-14500
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14500
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Packaging
> Reporter: Lerh Chuan Low
> Assignee: Stefan Miklosovic
> Priority: Low
>
> I've been testing Cassandra on trunk on Debian stretch, and have been
> creating my own systemd service files for Cassandra. My Cassandra clusters
> would sometimes die due to too many open files.
> As it turns out after some digging, this is because systemd ignores
> */etc/security/limits.conf.* It relies on a configuration file in
> <service-name>.d/<service-name>.conf. There's more information here:
> [https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-system.conf.html].
> So, for example, for */etc/systemd/system/cassandra.service*, the ulimits are
> read from */etc/systemd/system/cassandra.service.d/cassandra.conf*.
> Crosschecking with the limits of my Cassandra process, it looks like the
> */etc/security/limits.conf* really were not respected. If I make the change
> above, then it works as expected. */etc/security/limits.conf* is shipped in
> Cassandra's debian package.
> Given that there are far more distributions using Systemd (Ubuntu is now as
> well), I was wondering if it's worth the effort to change Cassandra's debian
> packaging to use systemd (or at least, include systemd service). I'm not
> totally familiar with whether it's common or normal to include a service file
> in packaging so happy to be corrected/cancelled depending on what people
> think.
