Hi,
Thanks for your reply.

I am unable to to do a swapinfo -t as I'm not in front of the machine.
But a previous swapinfo -a returned
Code:
         Kb         Kb         Kb        PCT   START/ Kb
TYPE AVAIL      USED     FREE     USED  LIMIT  RESERVE PRI    NAME
dev   2146304    0       2146304  0%    0        -           1    /dev/vg00/1vol2
dev   2048000    0       2048004  0%    0        -           1    /dev/vg00/1vol9
reserve        -   4192820  -4192820
memory 4786844 3352124 1434720 70%

This tells me that the box is not using any swap at all and using 70% of its memory, do you know what the reserve figures mean.
Am I correct in my assumptions?
Any other ideas?

Thanks

Mat

SWAPON(8)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							 SWAPON(8)

NAME
swapon, swapoff - enable/disable devices and files for paging and swapping SYNOPSIS
/sbin/swapon [-h -V] /sbin/swapon -a [-v] [-e] /sbin/swapon [-v] [-p priority] specialfile ... /sbin/swapon [-s] /sbin/swapoff [-h -V] /sbin/swapoff -a /sbin/swapoff specialfile ... DESCRIPTION
Swapon is used to specify devices on which paging and swapping are to take place. Calls to swapon normally occur in the system multi-user initialization file /etc/rc making all swap devices available, so that the paging and swapping activity is interleaved across several devices and files. Normally, the first form is used: -h Provide help -V Display version -s Display swap usage summary by device. Equivalent to "cat /proc/swaps". Not available before Linux 2.1.25. -a All devices marked as ``swap'' swap devices in /etc/fstab are made available. Devices that are already running as swap are silently skipped. -e When -a is used with swapon, -e makes swapon silently skip devices that do not exist. -p priority Specify priority for swapon. This option is only available if swapon was compiled under and is used under a 1.3.2 or later kernel. priority is a value between 0 and 32767. See swapon(2) for a full description of swap priorities. Add pri=value to the option field of /etc/fstab for use with swapon -a. Swapoff disables swapping on the specified devices and files. When the -a flag is given, swapping is disabled on all known swap devices and files (as found in /proc/swaps or /etc/fstab). NOTE
You should not use swapon on a file with holes. Swap over NFS may not work. SEE ALSO

The swapon command appeared in 4.0BSD. Linux 1.x 25 September 1995 SWAPON(8)
