Hi,
this is how I enable/disable swap. I tested it on RHEL5 and RHEL6, but it
should work on all linuxes I guess.
swap { "swap": }
swap { "swap": ensure => absent }
define swap($ensure = present) {
if $ensure == present {
exec { "swap-on":
command => "swapon -a",
unless => "grep partition /proc/swaps"
}
} else {
exec { "swap-off":
command => "swapoff -a",
onlyif => "grep partition /proc/swaps"
}
}
}
Cheers,
Jens
