I was asked to look at the performance of a E250 serving as a database
server. The machine has 3 disks of 18 GB each. A 4 GB slice seems to
be used for swap. However swap -l does not show this physical disk swap.
Here is what I get when I run some commands :
# uname -a
SunOS agni 5.7 Generic_106541-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-250
# swap -s
total: 61440k bytes allocated + 6552k reserved = 67992k used, 116648k available
# swap -l

correctly. Could someone help me out ?
