Chef solo and ulimit cookbook (inside redisio cookbook)

Chef Infra (archive)

Ohai,

I’m experiencing a weird issue when ulimit recipe is called twice and the
second time around it’s running in “wrong” context without seeing the
attributes defined in the JSON file:

This is my JSON:

“redisio”: {
“ulimit”: false,
“servers”: [
{“port”: 10000 },
{“port”: 10001 },
{“port”: 10002 },
{“port”: 10003 },
{“port”: 10004 },
{“port”: 10005 }
],
“version”: “2.8.9”
},
“ulimit”: {
“users”: {
“redis”: {
“filehandle_limit”: 5121,
“process_limit”: 122944,
“stack_limit”: 10240,
“memory_limit”: 65535
}
}

}

This is what happening…
