How can I use all of my swap space?

[Victor Fridyev]

Hi,

What is the value of maxswapchunks and swapmem_on parameters in the kernel ?

BTW, if you use VERITAS cluster, you have a problem: it does not use swap at all, only RAM. May be, you have a similar SW on the server.

Jamshed,

You might want to check on the priority of the swap already defined on the system.

Check for it in the /etc/fstab file, and change your priorities to 0 on all cases.

Regards,

Jaime.

if thats an 11.23 system maxswapchunks doesn't exist but swchunk can still be tweaked.

Try to make

nfile = vx_ninode in the kernel.

vx_ninode is not a dynamic kerenel parameter.

and reboot

your system is likely to be needed the kernel tuning.
Can you give me more information about your applications on the system.

and kernel parameters; kctune, kmtune's output.

you may need to check your application source
It might be normal staus depand on your application.
If it is Ok you need to increase mem resources.
