To view the current value for the vm.max_map_count setting, run:

$ grep vm.max_map_count /etc/sysctl.conf
$ vm.max_map_count=262144

To apply the setting on a live system, run:
$ sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

To permanently change the value for the vm.max_map_count setting, update the value in /etc/sysctl.conf.
