Correct, but it is not even required that you make any change to /etc/vfstab.
Putting it there only ensures it gets automounted during the next (and
each subsequent) (re)boot.

But if you only temporarily require more or less swap space, then you
can add more files (#swap -a) and also release them again (#swap -d).
In case of "-d" the resources get released (giving you less adressable
swap space), however: The actual file does not get deleted. You must
delete it yourself, manually, after the swap -d.
