利用文件来扩展交换分区，增减了灵活性，这种方法适用于硬盘中没有可分区的剩余空间，充分利用硬盘中的文件来提高系统的性能，也可以将文件拷贝到其它主机中使用。

 

扩充swap交换分区


新建swap交换文件

[root@localhost ~]# dd if=/dev/dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1M count=1024       

1024+0 records in

1024+0 records out

1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 7.34123 s, 146 MB/s

 

[root@localhost ~]# ls -lh /root/swapfile

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.0G Aug 31 09:50 /root/swapfile

 

[root@localhost ~]# mkswap /root/swapfile

Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 1048572 KiB

no label, UUID=b9990096-d55f-414d-a7e7-b16097af7088

 

修改fstab配置

[root@localhost ~]# vi /etc/fstab

挂载文件

[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s

Filename          Type            Size      Used    Priority

/dev/sda2          partition      3905532   0       -1

[root@localhost ~]# swapon -a   #挂载时会报一个权限错误，需要将swapfile文件的权限修改为600

swapon: /root/swapfile: insecure permissions 0644, 0600 suggested.

[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s

Filename        Type            Size       Used    Priority

/dev/sda2        partition      3905532    0      -1

/root/swapfile   file           1048572    0     100

 

删除swap分区


取消激活swap分区

[root@localhost ~]# swapoff /root/swapfile

[root@localhost ~]# swapon -s

Filename      Type            Size    Used    Priority

/dev/sda2     partition       3905532 0       -1
