swaptab -- table of swap devices

Description

The file /etc/swaptab lists all the swap devices to be configured in the system. When the system is booted, this file will be used for configuring swap devices. The format of the file is as follows:

device_name start_offset size

device_name should be specified by full pathname, start_offset (in blocks) specifies the offset from which swap will start, and size specifies the size (in blocks) of the device that can be used for swapping. A minus sign (-) can be used in the size field to denote that the entire device can be used for swapping.
