Besides /etc/login.conf changes, ulimit, and sysctl kern.maxfiles, I
believe there is also an "open-files-limit" setting that can be placed in
my.cnf.
Yes there is and you also need to make sure to start MySQL using the new
define class as well.
Look in the archive for what needs to be there. I reposted all the
details many times over.
Some details again however:
===========
in rc.local
# Start MySQL server
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe ] ; then
su -c _mysql root -c '/usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe &' > /dev/null &
echo -n ' mysql'
fi
===========
in sysctl.conf
# Increase for MySQL
kern.maxfiles=8192
=============
in login.conf
# Setting used by MySQL daemon
_mysql:\
:datasize=infinity:\
:maxproc=infinity:\
:openfiles-cur=2048:\
:openfiles-max=4096:\
:stacksize-cur=8M:\
:localcipher=blowfish,8:\
:tc=default:
===============
in my.cnf
# The following options will be pass to mysqld_safe
[mysqld_safe]
open-files=2048
==============
Install from packages as well for trouble free.
I have about 8 MySQL server all running for years and very stable. Some
run on i386, AMD64 and Sun Sparc 64. None are unstable, or freeze. The
time up only stop when I patch the system, either the OS, or install the
package upgrades.
If you have stability problem, you should troubleshoot it and get ride
of your problem.
May be different hardware between the screen and the keyboard might help
get over that hump and get it to a stable stage.
Hope this help you some.
