Hi David, Thanks for the detailed reply. You said: "If your memory reservations exceed the size of your backing store, you can have memory allocation failures while still having lots of unallocated backing store."
In our case the swap device is 40GB in size. Does it mean we're likely to see memory allocation failures if 'swap -s' reports more than 40GB as 'reserved' ? Would allocating extra swap space help under these circumstances ?
