Is that the right thing to do? Should gmirror run without swap?
You are interpreting it incorrectly.
If you put your swap partition on a gmirror drive, your swap partition
will benefit from RAID 1.
swapoff="YES" only allows for a clean shutdown, so that gmirror won't
rebuild everything on next boot.

av.
So, is there swap space somewhere? What if I run out of RAM?
thanks,
Bob
