Problems with swap [message #33195]

Hi All,

I setup an openVZ server and installed 2 VEs there. All is good except one thing: there is no swap available for VEs. On parent server all looks ok:

================================================
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4141608 3834984 306624 0 178040 3095728
-/+ buffers/cache: 561216 3580392
Swap: 4096564 0 4096564
================================================

but on VEs it's not:

================================================
# free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4141608 485956 3655652 0 0 0
-/+ buffers/cache: 485956 3655652
Swap: 0 0 0
================================================

So the question is: how can I setup swap for VEs?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Alaa,

thanks much, that helped a lot! Smile

I read the documentation before posting here but not carefully enough so missed the right section.
