i need your help in solving this
this is the result of my ulimit -a
on my linux server
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
scheduling priority (-e) 0
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 10000
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority (-r) 0
stack size (kbytes, -s) 10240
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 24576
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
Right now this is the result of my MongoDB
db.serverStatus().connections
{ "current" : 4, "available" : 5996 }
I want to increase the MongoDb connections more to 10000 .
I have tried different options like in my mongod1.conf
fork = true
port = 27017
maxConns = 10000
and also this while starting mongodb
mongod ulimit -n 10000 --config mongod1.conf
but nothing worked and all failed , please let me know how can i increase the connections to 10000 in my case , thanks in advance .
You also need bump up the number of file descriptors and number of file descriptors per process that the Linux kernel allows.
In Linux, this should be configured by editing the file at /proc/sys/fs/file-max
or by the sysctl
utility.
- Edit the
/etc/sysctl.conf
file and add fs.file-max = 50000
. This sets the maximum file descriptors that can run as a system-wide limit.
- Running
ulimit -n 50000
sets the user-wide limit for the maximum number of file descriptors open.
Check this link for a more descriptive write-up for editing the limits on a linux machine: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-increase-the-maximum-number-of-open-files/
Have you tried:
--maxConns arg max number of simultaneous connections
(Source: mongod documentation)
It seems MongoDB has no limit on incoming connections and you should modify system-wide limit, see official doc:
Unless constrained by system-wide limits, MongoDB has no limit on incoming connections. On Unix-based systems, you can modify system limits using the ulimit
command, or by editing your system’s /etc/sysctl
file. See UNIX ulimit Settings for more information.
Recommended ulimit Settings(offical doc):
-f (file size): unlimited
-t (cpu time): unlimited
-v (virtual memory): unlimited
-n (open files): 64000
-m (memory size): unlimited
-u (processes/threads): 64000
Remember to restart your mongod
and mongos
instances after changing the ulimit settings to ensure that the changes take effect.

You might need to change the hard limits in /etc/limits.conf
or /etc/security/limits.conf
depending on your distribution.
Method 1 If you use systemd (systemctl restart mongod)
sudo mkdir /etc/systemd/system/mongod.service.d/
sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/mongod.service.d/limits.conf
then add:
[Service]
LimitFSIZE=infinity
LimitCPU=infinity
LimitAS=infinity
LimitMEMLOCK=infinity
LimitNOFILE=64000
LimitNPROC=64000
Then execute:
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart mongod
Method 2 If NO systemd (service mongod restart)
sudo vi /etc/security/limits.d/99-mongodb.conf
Add something like:
* - nproc 64000
* - nofile 64000
* - fsize unlimited
* - cpu unlimited
* - memlock unlimited
* - as unlimited
* - rss unlimited
Note that * it's a wildcard. But you could use a specific user or group.
Then restart session and mongod.
