As far as I understand, Swapoff="Yes" doesn't disable the swapfile, it just purges it on shutdown or something. I'm not quite sure of the need of this with mirroring but I do see it in the gmirror doc. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of bob self Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2005 5:23 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: swap file using gmirror? I'm running 5.4 RELEASE. I have two identical hard drives. I installed FreeBSD on the first drive and then turned on gmirror. The 2nd drive sync'd in about 3 hours. I did create a swap partition, but part of the procedure that I found to start gmirror adds swapoff="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf Is that the right thing to do? Should gmirror run without swap? thanks, Bob _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
