Possibility to configure ulimits of instana containers (docker-based on-premise setup)

We recently had an issue with the max amount of open files per container. The Instana support told us, that there is currently no option to configure that.


We'd love to configure that for specific containers in the settings.hcl file.

    As there was no reaction here in the idea, I will close it.

    Hi Tobias,

    apologies this ticket was wrongly assigned in our system, let me asses the situation and come back to. Can you share that support case that you are referencing in your idea?


    Best,
