Question

1. The default maximum number of connections for 1.mongodb sharding cluster is 819. I want to increase the number, but the adjustment has not been successful.

[root@ctl1m ~]# mongo mongodb://10.0.1.121:30000
 MongoDB shell version v3.4.9
 connecting to: mongodb://10.0.1.121:30000
 MongoDB server version: 3.4.9
 2018-01-18T18:19:13.270+0800 I CONTROL  [main]
 mongos> db.serverStatus().connections
 { "current" : 715, "available" : 104, "totalCreated" : 719 }

From the above results, it can be seen that the maximum number of connections is 819. When the available is 0, an error will be reported when logging in again:

[root@ctl1m ~]# mongo mongodb://10.0.1.121:30000
 MongoDB shell version v3.4.9
 connecting to: mongodb://10.0.1.121:30000
 2018-01-19T10:52:41.277+0800 E QUERY    [thread1] Error: network error while attempting  to run command 'isMaster' on host '10.0.1.121:30000'  :
 connect@src/mongo/shell/mongo.js:237:13
 @(connect):1:6
 exception: connect failed

2. My revision process:
Modify /etc/secruity/limits.conf, restart the system to view ulimit -n is 16384. configure the following in mongos.conf file:
net:
port: 30000
bindIp: ctl1m # Listen to local interface only, comment to listen on all interfaces.
maxIncomingConnections: 8000
Then restart mongos service, check the connection number again, db.serverStatus().connections, found 819. What is the problem with my amendment? Do you have any amendment methods? Thank you

I also tried to start mongos service with the following method, but it still had no effect:
/usr/bin/mongos –config /etc/mongod/mongos.conf –maxConns=3000

Answer 1

Ulimit -n has been modified and has come into effect. Most of all, when I modified the service file, the total number of connections was normal:
