Performing basic system tuning and monitoring

Changing the size of swap space after installation

The size of swap space can be changed after installation is complete. You might need to do this if you want to divide the swap space among more than one disk, or if you want to increase the swap space.


NOTE: Be extremely careful when you do these tasks. The VTOC is a critical resource in the operating system. A misconstruction due to a typographical error can render the system unbootable or otherwise corrupt the contents of a file system.
