I've followed faq 14.4 on setting up a permanent swap. I've rebuilt the kernel
with:
config bsd root on wd0a swap on wd0b and vnd0c dumps on wd0b
Then I created the actual swap file:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap bs=1k count=262144
I added the info to fstab:
/dev/vnd0c none swap sw 0 0
Then, as per the faq, I rebooted.
Then I did
sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap
and got
vnd0: 268435456 bytes on /var/swap
Then I did:
sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c
And then:
swapctl -l
Device 512-blocks Used Avail Capacity Priority
swap_device 4195296 0 4195296 0% 0
/data2/swap 2097152 0 2097152 0% 0
/dev/vnd0c 524288 0 524288 0% 0
Total 6816736 0 6816736 0%
Everything's fine at that point. But, when I reboot, I have
to repeat the commands
sudo vnconfig -c -v vnd0 /var/swap
sudo swapctl -a /dev/vnd0c
in order to get the extra swap back again. I thought from reading
the faq that it becomes permanent, but I can't get it to. Can
someone maybe point out if they see something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.
