swapoff in 11iv3

[Court Campbell]

I heard that this was finally implemented in a patch. Anyone tried it?

[Torsten.]

I read somewhere on docs.hp.com this is new with september 2008 release - not yet installed or tried.

Court,

Not quite available yet... but in the next few days:

http://docs.hp.com/en/5992-4174/ch04s05.html

I suspect even with the Sep 08 release though (i.e I think you may have to use update-ux to go to the 0809 release before you can get swapoff to work.)

A real problem is this:

All documentations say "see man page", but docs.hp.com still lists feb 2007 man pages only!

http://docs.hp.com/en/hpuxman_pages.html

How to know about the man pages without a system running the september release of 11.31?

:-((

Yes, we were trying to get the 11.31 libm man pages updated on the web in addition to the installed ones. We were told that they may not change until 0903 and maybe not even then. :-(
So we got our own copy of those pages:

Hi (again):

> Dennis: We were told that they may not change until 0903

Yikes, I wish HP would stop using dates of this form! At least use 200903 which clearly suggests March 2009 and not the recent September 3rd :-))

Regards!

Sounds like no one has used it yet. Not a problem. I am sure it works just like swapoff in Linux. Thanks for the replies.
