Elasticsearch requirements

Newest versions of Elasticsearch complains about system default vm.max_map_count (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.0/vm-max-map-count.html#vm-max-map-count) That's why this variable should be changed to higher one in your OS.

echo 'vm.max_map_count=262144' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
