Oddly enough, "swap" in Solaris tends to have very little to do with swap devices, other than when you are just about to start complaining about really bad performance. To get the behavior you intend, you need to set swap to 2G and physical to 1G. (I say "intend", because I really doubt that anyone would really "want" to page or swap 1 GB to swap devices.)
