| 1. Check your actual limit | |
| $ cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches | |
| 2. Adjust your new limit in the file /etc/sysctl.conf: | |
| $ echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p | |
| The above command added the line "fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288" to the /etc/sysctl.conf file and then asked the kernel to reload the new settings. | |
| 3. Check again your new actual limit | |
| $ cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches | |
| result: 524288 |
