Re: Memory utilization too high

Hi Dennis,

Sorry to ask:

No, just somebody didn't configure the kernel parm swapmem_on to on.
-> how to turn the swapmem on? command is "swapmem_on"? after turn it on, can share with me the command to turn it off also :)? THanks!

>how to turn the swapmem on?

This is a kernel parm:
kctune swapmem_on=1

kctune -v swapmem_on # says:
...
Can Change At Next Boot Only

You will need to reboot to change it

>can share with me the command to turn it off

The swapmem_on(5) man page says don't do that:
However, turning this feature off really does not gain the system anything.
