Abdel, What some people have done is capture the swapfile signature that gets written (at 7766 octal??), and written that to a CMS file on the guest's 191 disk. Then, just before the guest IPLs Linux, it writes that signature out to the vdisk. Then, the only thing that needs to be done in the guest is the automatic swapon command that's in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.
Otherwise, yes, you'll need to do the mkswap and swapon each time the guest is restarted. That would most likely go in /etc/rc.d/rc.local.

Thanks Mark. If I need to have this swap on whenever Linux is ipled, do I still need to do mkswap and the swapon? What's the equivalent to SuSE's /sbin.init.d/boot on RH?
