Do you need to change the swap space of service console in ESX? 

You can make use of mkswap, swapon commands to do this. Check the man
page of these commands.

Thanks,

Subject: Resizing swap space on VMWare ESX Linux

Hi,

We've over-allocated the swap space on a newly installed
VMWARE ESX - 6Gb.

I was told that 800MB is the max & possibly 600MB for
swap space is sufficient though the VMWare blade comes
with 32Gb memory.

How can I reduce the swap space size without reinstalling
the ESX?


Thanks
U
