Problem
Customers still occasionally hit the inotify.max_user_watches limit even at the max setting of 32768. Use default inotify.max_user_watches now that the following Linux change has increased the max_user_watches based on the amount of addressable memory available.
inotify: Increase default inotify.max_user_watches limit to 1048576 · torvalds/linux@9289012
Solution
Remove hard coded max value for
fs.inotify.max_user_watches
in 50-override.conf.Testing Done
