Question

How to enhance the worker connections without restarting Solus stack?

Answer

1. SSH into the SolusVM 2 Management node

2. Execute:

   # docker ps --format '' -f name=solus_nginx

3. Access the shell of the container:

   # docker exec -ti "container ID" /bin/bash

4. Modify the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and increase the worker_connections in that file:

   Note: Use SED command or copy the file locally, edit it and then upload it to the container again

   - Copy the nginx.conf out of the container

   # docker cp <container_id>:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf ./nginx.conf

   - Edit it on your host machine (with nano, vim, etc.)

   # nano nginx.conf

   - Copy it back into the container

   # docker cp ./nginx.conf <container_id>:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

5. Reload the Nginx container:

   # nginx -s reload

6. Edit the /usr/local/solus/config/config.yml - adjust the worker connections there for persistence upon reboot or restart of entire SolusVM 2.
