Issue

I'm trying to run Elastic search in an Ubuntu EC2 machine (t2.medium).

But I'm getting the message:

max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]

How can I increase the vm.max_map_count value?

Solution

To make it persistent, you can add this line:

vm.max_map_count=262144

in your /etc/sysctl.conf and run

$ sudo sysctl -p

to reload configuration with new value
