Hi managers,
I have an XP1000 with Tru64Unix 5.1, with default swap mode
set to eager (or immediate). I want to set it to lazy (or
deferred) mode. From the man pages I have understood the
following:
- Make a swap.stanza file:
vm:
vm_swap_eager = 1
- sysconfigdb -u -f swap.stanza vm
- Reboot
I was surprised to get the message
"vm_swap_init: warning UNSPECIFIED swap device not found"
"swapon -s" shows no more allocated space.
"sysconfig -q vm" gives effectively "swapdevice = UNSPECIFIED"
(and "vm_swap_eager = 0")
Finally I had to add in my swap.stanza file:
swapdevice = /dev/disk/dsk1b
an reboot was ok.
Also, before changing swap mode, /etc/sysconfigtab contained
"vm-swap-eager=1" instead of "vm_swap_eager=1"...
Did I miss something ?
TIA.
