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..
