dm-0 and dm-1 look like Linux multipath SAN-disks.

A block is 512 bytes. To represent in GB, you have to calculate it. A hint with display is to use maybe the printf format option of using something like:
Code:
$> printf "%08d\n" "7"
00000007
$> printf "%08d\n" "123"
00000123

to represent something like 0.03 GB for example.

Since it is nicely separated to columns, awk might come handy also. If you get stuck at a point do not hesitate to ask here.

all-swaps

all-swaps(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual					      all-swaps(7)

NAME

       all-swaps - event signalling that all swap partitions have been activated

SYNOPSIS

       all-swaps [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  all-swaps  event  is  generated  by the mountall(8) daemon after it has activated all swap partitions listed in fstab(5).  mountall(8)
       emits this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with  other  activ-
       ity.

       When this event occurs, common filesystems such as /usr may not be mounted.

EXAMPLE

       A service that wishes to be running once swap partitions are activated might use:

	      start on all-swaps

SEE ALSO

       mounting(7) mounted(7) virtual-filesystems(7) local-filesystems(7) remote-filesystems(7) filesystem(7)
