Operating Systems AIX aix swap Post 98859 by jabberwocky on Sunday 12th of February 2006 01:26:52 PM

Excuse my previous vagueness.
My point is the output of lsps -a gives:

# lsps -a
Page Space Physical Volume Volume Group Size %Used Active Auto Type
hd6 hdisk0 rootvg 2272MB 50 yes yes lv

The %Used field value is 50 - does that mean that it is possible to
free up another 2272Mb of swap space on this AIX box?
If so, how?
I can see the swap on the root volume group in smit, but it is not clear
how to allocate the rest (if any exists) of the physical space on the
device.

Thanks,

Jabberwocky
