This is what we do for each new Amazon instance. (Sorry, had to edit this three 
times to get Jira to not corrupt the commands)

 
{code}
# Increase number of open files. must be run as root
sudo su -
echo '* hard nofile 500000' >> /etc/security/limits.conf
echo '* soft nofile 500000' >> /etc/security/limits.conf
echo 'root hard nofile 500000' >> /etc/security/limits.conf
echo 'root hard nofile 500000' >> /etc/security/limits.conf
echo 'fs.file-max = 2097152' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
# set the processes/threads limit
sudo vi /etc/security/limits.d/20-nproc.conf
# * soft nproc 122944
{code}
