Alpha Server losing swap space on boot

We are having trouble with our small Alpha Systems (DEC Alpha Server 300,
400 / DEC Alpha Station 500) after halting powering down and then the
booting the system. It errors because it cannot find the swap space and the
halts. We correct this by loading the OS CD (v4.0E) and going into a shell
and doing a disklabel -r rz0. We then can halt the system and it boot fine
after that.

Has anyone else seen this problem?
Does anyone have the fix for this?

Many thanks in advance
