Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to track down the cause of the error message below. It is
encountered when we try to enable a swapfile for a low-end VM. The VPS
provider uses OpenVZ.
# ./vm-swapfile.sh
Swapfile already allocated
swapon: /swapfile: swapon failed: Operation not permitted
Failed to enable swapfile
The relevant command is:
if ! swapon /swapfile; then
echo "Failed to enable swapfile"
fi
Is this mkswap message from OpenVZ?
Thanks in advance.
