Hello world!

I am getting alot of these in my dmesg output:

swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
swap_pager_getswapspace: failed
swap_pager_getswapspace: failed


FreeBSD ns2.wananchi.com 4.5-STABLE FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE #4: \ 
Thu May  2 09:54:01 EAT 2002 wash@ns2.wananchi.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SRV4.x  i386


I've seen processes die because of this.

I've checked the archives and Ben Smithurst suggested that one increases swap
space.

How does one do this on a LIVE system? Suggestions?

Here is my space usage currently..

wash@ns2 ('tty') ~ 101 -> df -h
Filesystem    Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a   4.7G   206M   4.2G     5%    /
/dev/da1s1f   4.7G   4.1G   299M    93%    /backup
/dev/da0s1f   6.9G   2.7G   3.7G    42%    /home
/dev/da0s1e   4.7G   2.0G   2.4G    46%    /usr
/dev/da1s1e    11G   9.2G   1.2G    88%    /var
/dev/da2s1e    16G   6.1G   9.0G    40%    /home2
procfs        4.0K   4.0K     0B   100%    /proc


How can I use that space on the / for swap?


Thank you
