They all say nearly the same :
I have to change the link /sbin/swapdefault to the new one
(in my case from rz0b to rz1b)
and the parameters PAGEFILE and PARTITION in rc.config from rz0b to rz1b.
thank for your help

the original question was :
hallo, Dear Gurus,
I want to update my system from DU 3.2C to 4.0 (and then to 4.0b).
The update procedure told me, that my root partition is to small (64 MB)
So I copied root from rz0a to a secondary disc rz1a and boot from this
one.
My idea now was to deactivate the swap space (128 MB) on rz0a and make
with a part
this and the old root partition a new one with 96 MB.
So I edited fstab : changed swap1 to rz1b and deleted swap2.
but after reboot swapon -s shows me only rz0b.
so my question :
itsī possible to deactivate this swap1?
do I have to make some changes in the config-file of the system ?
Any other Idea to change the size of the root-partition of a living
system?
