App Visibility proxy installation or upgrade error about number of memory map areas

The installation or upgrade process stops because the maximum number of memory map areas is too low and the process cannot change the value.

Issue

The installation or upgrade process returns an error message about the maximum number of memory map areas:

The current maximum number of memory map areas (vm.max_map_count) is set to yourSystemValue. Set to 262144 or greater.

Probable cause

The installation or upgrade process tries to set the maximum number of memory map areas on the computer but cannot change the setting.

Resolution

Set the {{code language="none"}}
vm.max_map_count
{{/code}} parameter to at least 262144 and restart the installation or upgrade process.
