System type, version: (VS2) Version 6.2A
System name: lycus
What's wrong:
/etc/swapon won't get executed if the system libraries are not available
at boot time (e.g. servers down, AFS not yet started):
if [ ${RVDCLIENT}x = truex ]; then
echo "Attaching system libraries:" >/dev/console
...
fi
...
echo -n "Adding swap devices..." >/dev/console
/etc/swapon -a >/dev/console
echo "" >/dev/console
What should have happened:
It should be able to configure all the swap space even if the system
packs aren't available.
