swap space limit

Is there a way to get above the maximum swap space limit of about 34Gb ??

Need to get swap to 48Gb...

Re: swap space limit

Not sure what limit you mean? You may need to increase maxswapchunks if you need additional swap space.

Re: swap space limit

You will need to increase swchunk from the default of 2K to 4K (4096). That will get you to 64GB but that is generally an unnessary amount of swap. It's very common for systems to have much more memor than swap; that's what pseudoswap (swapmem_on=1) is for.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
