Hard Limit Processes/Threads

[flee]

Hello,

I saw this Warning message in the splunkd.log file. This node is running a Heavy Forwarder v6.2.1 and the JMS Modular Input on Linux OS. I don't know if the message is related to the JMS Mod Input or some OS related setting. Where should I find and set this value?

05-13-2015 15:49:44.775 -0700 WARN main - The hard limit of 'processes/threads' is lower than the recommended value. The hard limit is: 14850. The recommended value is: 16000.

Thank you.
