hibernation should only write the actively changed data (diry pages) from ram to disk, that definitely wont hit 100% of your physical RAM... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032322 Title: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/1032322/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1032322] Re: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement
As per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance Wishlist: Missing functionality. * If it is non-trivial to implement, it should rather be written as a feature specification, see FeatureSpecifications. It is possible to modify the default recipes, but that will harm the Desktop installations. [1] Another possibility is to introduce alternative package partman-auto-server, which will replace/divert partman-auto recipes. Or we could push for recipe flavour support in Debian. I think it will be useful to have a UDS session as part of foundations or server track to discuss this, choose what needs modification and how to implement it. Probably all default recipes need a refresh or a review to make sure they are all still relevant.

As ex-lead of Foundations and ex-release manager of 10.10, I'm well aware of bug definitions, thanks. I also know desktop users like hibernate, despite the project's decision to disable by default. I think the issue is that the decision on how to handle swap was taken back when Ubuntu was a primarily desktop focused OS, and thus it made sense to do what most neededtimes have change, so I certainly think we should have a UDS session on this and will make sure this occurs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032322 Title: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/1032322/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1032322] Re: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement
I disagree with the importance being set to Wishlist. I would say that default settings (e.g. 100% memory) is for the default/majority of systems...what systems are you referring to? If you mean Desktop, sure...but not Server, where it is customary to have a LOT of RAM in your configuration. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032322 Title: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/1032322/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Agreed that this is more than just a wishlist. AIUI, for cloud compute nodes this swap requirement can as much as double the local disk space requirements, which is not an appropriate outcome. I think we really need different recipes for server vs. desktop installs, here. ** Changed in: partman-auto (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Wishlist = Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032322 Title: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-auto/+bug/1032322/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1032322] Re: Swap space allocation for large memory systems needs improvement
While I would tend to agree, I would say that default settings (e.g. 100% memory) is for the default/majority of systems. If memory on the machine is 100's of GB or even TBs, custom partman recipes should be used to tune the machine. While currently not supported, I would like to see magic factors a keen to check_mk magic factor for disk space notifications.
