    <p>How to increase the maximum number of allowed open files depends slightly on your linux distribution. Here are some instructions for ubuntu and centos:</p> <p><a href="http://posidev.com/blog/2009/06/04/set-ulimit-parameters-on-ubuntu/">http://posidev.com/blog/2009/06/04/set-ulimit-parameters-on-ubuntu/</a> <a href="http://pro.benjaminste.in/post/318453669/increase-the-number-of-file-descriptors-on-centos-and">http://pro.benjaminste.in/post/318453669/increase-the-number-of-file-descriptors-on-centos-and</a></p> <p>The elasticsearch documentation recommends setting the maximum file limit to 32k or 64k. Since you are at 16k and are already hitting a limit, I'd probably set it higher; something like 128k. See: <a href="http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/setup/installation/">http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/setup/installation/</a></p> <p>After upping the number of open files and restarting elasticsearch you will want to verify that it worked by re-running the curl command you mentioned:</p> <pre><code>curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_nodes?os=true&amp;process=true&amp;pretty=true' </code></pre> <p>As you add more indices (along with more documents), you will also see the number of files elasticsearch keeps track of increase. If you notice performance degradation with all of the indicies and documents, you can try adding a new node to your cluster: <a href="http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/setup/configuration/">http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/setup/configuration/</a> - since you already have a sharded, replicated configuration, this should be a relatively painless process.</p>
