1- Step : open the sysctl.conf and add this line fs.file-max = 65536
vi /etc/sysctl.conf add end of line
fs.file-max = 65536
save and exit.
2. Step : vi /etc/security/limits.conf and add below the mentioned
* soft nproc 65535
* hard nproc 65535
* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535
save and exit check max open file ulimit
[root@localhost# ulimit -a

Increase max user processes in Linux
Follow the step:
vi /etc/security/limits.conf and add below the menstioed
* soft nproc 65535
* hard nproc 65535
* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535
and vi /etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf
* soft nproc 65535
* hard nproc 65535
* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535
save and exit check the user max processes ulimit
