Operating Systems Solaris Possible to increase swap size for existing UFS-based drive slice? Post 302798285 by MadeInGermany on Wednesday 24th of April 2013 06:51:36 AM

The system appears to have only 4 GB RAM, check with
prtconf and
prtdiag
Adding 1 or 2 GB swap makes sense here.
The disk c0t0d0 appears to be fully used, by UFS filesystems. So it's some expert effort to deduct another swap slice from it. Adding a swap file is easier.

SWAP-OFFSET(8)							    swap-offset 						    SWAP-OFFSET(8)

NAME
swap-offset - program to calculate the offset of a swap file in a partition SYNOPSIS
swap-offset [<swap_file>] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the swap-offset. This manual page was written for the Debian(TM) distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. The programs s2disk and s2both can be used to save the state of the whole system to a swap partition or file and power off or suspend your system. After restarting your system it will be put back in the exact system state you left it (this is sometimes called hibernation). In the case of using a swap file you will have to specify the location of the swap file's header as the offset from the beginning of the partition that contains the swap file. The swap-offset utility can be used to determine this value. SEE ALSO
uswsusp.conf(8), s2disk(8) For more information see the HOWTO and the README AUTHOR
