Ila, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. Swap files/partitions/devices are not mounted. They're activated by a "swapon" command. The error message you would get would be something along the lines of "no valid swap signature found."

Every weekend we take several of them down and backup with FDR. This past weekend when the one system was reboot there was a corrupt swap file and it would not mount. A dump of the FDR data showed the corrupted data on the backup that was not corrupt the week before. Anyone else ever see anything like this? I can find nothing in the logs to indicate why it might have become corrupt.
