on the Ubuntu 20.04 Multi Node playground we don’t have permission to modify the value of vm.max_map_count as root.
sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=2097152

May I know what are you trying to do with this?
Hi,
I want to try install Elasticsearch for testing and the service won’t start if I don’t set the value of
vm.max_map_count to 2097152 .
Hi @fethi.amari ,
Please try the below steps, let me know if this works.
{
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y gnupg gnupg2 ca-certificates
wget -qO - https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
echo "deb https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elastic-7.x.list
# install elastic search
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install elasticsearch kibana
# for kibana access
sed -i '/server.host/a server.host: "0.0.0.0"' /etc/kibana/kibana.yml
systemctl enable elasticsearch.service
systemctl enable kibana.service
}
Thank you for the steps,
the Elasticsearch Service won’t start when I configured as a cluster as shown by the below error.
Please give us the permission to modify this parameter.

Hi @fethi.amari ,
Our apologies for the inconvenience. It seems we can’t change such kernel parameters of the DevOps playgrounds as of now. Please consider using the cloud playgrounds ( AWS or Azure).
Let us know if we can help you in any way.
