Hello

I have a few questions in regards to the displayed info when I
issue the swapon -s command:

1. What does "Reserved space" mean?

2. How can I detect swap space below 10% free by interpreting the
   displayed info?

My configuration is rz2b, rz3b, rz3g, and rz21g as allocated
swap space; rz2b is the primary swap space. I am writing a
script to monitor the swap space, and I want to be able to
calculate the "In-use space" and "Free space".

My main concern is how are the 4 partitions being used to page
and swap; I do notice that the primary partition is not used
up to 100% before it goes to the next partition.

Thanks
