   How do ulimits in a #docker container interact with ulimits in the OS? #SELinux involved at all?

     I repeated, so hopefully you'll reach someone who can answer.
     
     I haven't used #Docker for myself yet.

     @musicman I found “this”:{https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46211558/ulimits-in-docker-host-vs-container} ... which likely answers your question.

     one interesting note in there is this: "Note that for VMs, this will be different: The guest OS might display a value of 1048576, but the open calls will in the end be handled by the host OS, which will impose the limit of 1024"
     
     It's possible this is the ultimate issue, but since the customer is unwilling to give us a sosreport, I doubt I will ever know.
