Shrink swap

edited Jul 15, 2016 7:34AM in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

Hi,

Can the swap be shrunk in Solaris 10?

Before swap space added:

# swap -l

swapfile             dev  swaplo blocks   free

/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 256,1      16 20983792 20983792

Added 40g in swap:

# zfs set volsize=40g rpool/swap

# swap -l

swapfile             dev  swaplo blocks   free

/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 256,1      16 20983792 20983792

/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 256,1  20983824 62902256 62902256

I would like to have swap of 20g instead of 40g, can it be done?

Thanks in advance.

Howdy, Stranger!
