Re: Large swap space on Integrity server
There is no special advantage which you are going to get having multiple swap parition on the same physical disk.But if you can configure mulitiple swap spaces on different disk , in that case it will improve the I/O performance .
thx,

Re: Large swap space on Integrity server
We do have a SAN (EVA-5000), but the rx4640 is not attached to it. It accesses data storage via NFS mount from the fileserver attached to the SAN.
But, you don't foresee any issues with a single locally mounted >80GB swap part? I was curious to know if there is a maximum swap size that I might bump up against.

Re: Large swap space on Integrity server
In VLM, SWAP sould not be used, and if is used, then again should be tuned to avoid the use.
The latest recommendation I know is to create swap space using multiple 2GB partitions. I did not found any information about if this restriction still exists for Integrity servers.

Re: Large swap space on Integrity server
You can use the other partition by creating a filesystem on it and mounting it.
I say this because you won't be able to create too many partitions at this point in that disk.
