Yes, those statements define the VDISKs, but they don't make them usable by 
Linux. See my other posts on how to take those and put a swap signature on them 
so Linux knows how to use them. 

In your case above, you would have two invocations for SWAPGEN: 

SWAPGEN 203 409600 ( REUSE FBA
SWAPGEN 204 2097152 ( REUSE FBA

You need REUSE because SWAPGEN will refuse to overwrite pre-existing disks 
without it.

You can also let SWAPGEN define the disk for you (instead of putting them in 
the CP Directory) by removing the MDISK statements for the VDISK from the CP 
directory entry, and just using:

SWAPGEN 203 409600 ( FBA
SWAPGEN 204 2097152 ( FBA

SWAPGEN will define and format the swap disks all by itself. If you use my 
example, put these in the <userid> EXEC file so it's customized for each guest.
