Hi Chet,

Below is all of the values of the bash ulimit optionals, this issue
present in this environment
----------------------------------------------------------------------
root@localhost:/root> cat ulimit.txt
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority (-e) 0
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 516046
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 64
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1024
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority (-r) 0
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 516046
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
But found change the -u optionals value through the ( ulimit -u 1024)
will let this issue disapeared.

Thanks,
Chen.
