Issue #3133 has been updated by dillon. Status changed from New to Closed
That document is pretty old. I'll do a few passes on the whole thing. The swapfile section itself is completely obsolete. We don't recommend assigning swap to a file. It really has to be assigned to a physical partition on a real storage device, otherwise the kernel can deadlock pretty easily in a low-memory situation. -Matt ---------------------------------------- Bug #3133: The documentation on adding file based swap space is incorrect http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/3133#change-13436 * Author: gjs278 * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: ---------------------------------------- On https://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/handbook/Configuration/#index14h2 Step 5 is incorrect. The command # vnconfig -e /dev/vn0b /usr/swap0 swap Does not seem to work because /dev/vn0b doesn't exist. # vnconfig -e /dev/vn0 /usr/swap0 swap Does work. This was done on 5.2 after following the first 4 steps. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
