bringup-cluster: Remove tester pid limits.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
By default the container running ovn-tester could use only up to 2048
pids.  With large scale OVN-IC tests (e.g., 500 zones) the tester
(through ovsdbapp) was failing to spawn enough threads to handle all the
database connections.

Remove the pid limit.

NOTE: this is a bit of a band aid because it doesn't fix the real
bottleneck in such scenarios, i.e., the fact that the tester still keeps
long lived connections to all DBs.
