Note that you cannot increase the MySQL open_files_limit to a number higher than your ulimit "open files" limit. To see your current setting type: In order to increase the limit, open /etc/security/limits.conf and at the bottom of the file enter: or if you only want to specify a higher ulimit for a specific user, ie. mysql, enter this: Also repeat for /etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf Reboot your server for the new limits to apply, or type to temporarily set the open files limit.
