Swap: 0 0 0
Swap: 0 表示没有 swapfile.
2.添加swapfile
sudo fallocate -l 1g /mnt/1GiB.swap
fallocate size suffixes: g = Giga, m = Mega, etc. (See man fallocate).
If fallocate fails or it not available, you can use dd:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/1GiB.swap bs=1024 count=1048576
We need to set the swap file permissions to 600 to prevent other users from being able to read potentially sensitive information from the swap file.
sudo chmod 600 /mnt/1GiB.swap
Format the file as swap:
sudo mkswap /mnt/1GiB.swap
Enable use of Swap File
sudo swapon /mnt/1GiB.swap
The additional swap is now available and verified with: cat /proc/swaps
Enable Swap File at Bootup
Add the swap file details to /etc/fstab so it will be available at bootup:
echo '/mnt/1GiB.swap swap swap defaults 0 0' | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab
