I just built a 10.2 machine on a cloud-based VPS (Digital Ocean) that has
512M of memory and 1G of swap partition. I am seeing a ton of errors
like
this:
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(10): failed
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(14): failed
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(11): failed
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(6): failed
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace(7): failed
Aug 14 00:01:22 myhost last message repeated 2 times
So, I added this to fstab (after creating /usr/swap0):
md99 none swap sw,file=/usr/swap0 0 0
And then did this:
swapon -aq
But, when I do a swapinfo, all I can see is the "disk" swap partition
that comes standard with the VPS:
Device 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity
/dev/gpt/swapfs 1048576 456572 592004 44%
Two questions:
1) Is this reasonable behavior from a machine wiht 512M of memory and
a 1G swap partition? I am doing things like running clamscan and
buildworld at the same time. That's why I tried to add space with
a file.
2) Why doesn't the extra swap disk appear in the hostinfo output.
Does the /dev/md99 device exist now? Otherwise something went wrong when
you tried adding swap. Try swapon -a without the -q.
