Public bug reported: [Impact] Without this nofile limit fix, large ceph cluster fails to start or stops handling requests.
[Fix] Ceph upstream applied a new nofile limit(10x) to Giant+ releases (vivid in Ubuntu repo). https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/2156/files [Test case] Check that new nofile ulimit is properly applied as 32768 -> 327680: $ cat /proc/$(pgrep -n ceph-osd)/limits | grep 'Max open files' [Regression Potential] minimal, If we set 1M nofile ulimit, the daemon will fail to start due to the default fs.nr_open value. However this time, we will apply 0.3M which should not cause troubles.
