I have just installed varnish and its ready to serve web pages.
Problem is that we are hitting open files limit.
We have already set ulimit
to varnish user.
We want to find a file where we can write this configuration:
# Maximum number of open files
NFILES=131072
# Locked shared memory, default log size is 82MB + header
MEMLOCK=82000
## Configuration with VCL
#
# Listen on port 80, administration on localhost:6082, and forward to
# one content server selected by the vcl file, based on the request. Use a
# fixed-size cache file.
#
# Note: you must replace "example.org" with the outside IP address of your server
# - this is the address at which Varnish receives incoming requests.
# $wgSquidServers in MediaWiki's LocalSettings.php will also need to list all addresses for this Varnish cache.
#
DAEMON_OPTS="-a example.org:80 \
-T localhost:6082 \
-f /etc/varnish/default.vcl \
-u varnish -g varnish \
-s file,/var/lib/varnish/varnish_storage.bin,4G"
The file you're looking for is the Varnish daemon config script. You can find this (usually) in the /etc/sysconfig/varnish
if you're on Redhat/RHEL, or /etc/default/varnish
if you're on Debian/Ubuntu
