Enabling device paging on /dev/vg00/lvol2.

SolutionHow do you adjust swapchunk for that refer follow
Total_swap_that_can_be_configured
=maxswapchunks * swapchunk
If your system has following parmeters
maxswapchunks=4096
swchunk=2048
then
the total swap you can configure is 4096*2048 = 8388608 which is 8 GB.
If you want to add more swap, then calculate the maxswapchunks by the same forumula
However, the limit for maxswapchunks is 16384. If you need to go beyond that limit, then you will need to increase the swchunk size

Re: SWAP SPACE
maxswapchunks was obsoleted on 11.23.
Have you tried simply using 'SAM' to add your additional swapspace. You can still use it on version 11.23 (even 11.23IA). It's old and slow, but it does work.
Rgrds,
