Hello, I am confused by a warning from mkswap : When making a swap on a LVM volume, I see the following warning : mkswap: /dev/vg_SDB1/swap_test6_64: warning: don't erase bootbits sectors on whole disk. Use -f to force. Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 1048572 KiB Is it safe to use mkswap -f in this case ? (If that matters, the swap is intended for a virtual machine, and the

Has anyone experienced a swap failing to be mounted in domU''s? I created a LVM swap space, ran mkswap and made it available on the same line as the root partition (also on LVM) in each of the domU''s config file. But it fails to be mounted and I''m running without swap space. That wouldn''t be too much of a problem if I had a lot of mem to play with but

Avoid passing an empty UUID string to mkswap, which mkswap does not accept (correctly) as new UUID.

I just upgraded a blade server via rsync from another server. Rebuilt the initrd. It boots fine... except that it won't turn on the swap partition. Several times, I've made sure swap was off, then mkswap -L SWAP-sda3 /dev/sda3, but when I do swapon -L SWAP-sda3, it complains it can't find the device for the label. The only thing I find while googling, other than redoing what I've

Hi, We are trying to get OpenSSH-1.2.2 stable release to compile under Solaris 2.3 Sparc.

This patch is easier to read if you use the 'git show -w' option. Also observe that: fun a -> ( fun () -> (* code *) ) (ie. returning a closure) is identical to: fun a () -> (* code *) Rich.

Hello list, i know what btrfs don''t support swap files. I read arch wiki and when i reading about systemd addon for auto create swapfile on btrfs, i invent the way, how create and using swap file, just see following sh code: swapfile=$(losetup -f) #free loop device truncate -s 8G /swap #create 8G sparse swap file losetup $swapfile /swap #mount file to loop mkswap $swapfile swapon

I have resolved my mysql problem it had to do with an improperly configured host file. My most pressing problem is why mounting swap fails in all my domU''s. My disks are LVM based. /dev/xen/www_swap for example it the (duh!) swap space for the www domain and exported from the xen file as disk = [ ''phy:xen/www,sda1,w'' , ''phy:xen/www_swap,sda2,w'' ] I
