file limits not configured for swift nodes

[Bjoern]

The current state of the swift playbooks/roles seem not to support file limits modification for objectservers etc.
Hence we should add this task to support file limits modification for the swift user

Hello Bjoern,

Here is the result of our bug triage:
All the swift options should be exposed via config template, and should work with overrides.

If it's not the case (please mention why/which file we are talking about), please update this bug.

Also if you think the system lacks documentation, don't hesitate to tell us too.

Thank you.

[Bjoern (bjoern-t)]

Thanks but I was not able find any override/template for. PLease correct me if there is. I'm also looking from a liberty perspective.

[Jean-Philippe Evrard (jean-philippe-evrard)]

Swift role under liberty already supports overrides (https://github.com/openstack/openstack-ansible/blob/liberty/playbooks/roles/os_swift/tasks/swift_post_install.yml)
But you didn't give information about the file in question.

Could you complete the bug with the file you want to override, please?

Thank you in advance.

[Bjoern (bjoern-t)]

I fix it myself. I referred to file limits so it would be /etc/security/limits.conf

[Jean-Philippe Evrard (jean-philippe-evrard)]

Thanks for your commitment.
We need another person to confirm the bug to change its status to confirmed.
In the meantime, updating the bug/proposing commits will not make it expire.
