Good morning everybody

I was migrating my ufs – rootfilesystem to a zfs – one, but was a little upset 
finding out that it became bigger (what was clear because of the swap and dump 
size).

Now I am questioning myself if it is possible to set the swap and dump size by using the lucreate – command (I wanna try it again but on less space). Unfortunately I did not find any advice in manpages.

I don't know the official answer, but since swap and dump are now just zfs filesystems, you can just "zfs set volsize=8G zboot/swap" to any size you want.

That is, after lucreate, but before you "init 6" to reboot.

Or indeed any time after, as long as you "swap -d", "swap -a" to make it notice the new size.

(I believe you should set volsize and refreservation to the same value).
