swap -d failure

Hi All

I needed to add swap space temporarily to a server so I could run an oracle installer..

So I did swap -a 100M /data01/swapfile.zak

Still had an issue

So I did swap -a 5000M /data01/swapfile.zak1

Once I had finished

I did swap -d /data01/swapfile.zak

No problems... I deleted the file...

However when I do: swap -d /data01/swapfile.zak1

I get

swapfile.zak1: Not enough space

Can just delete the file?

How can free up the swap space?

Thanking you all inadvance..

Z
