NFS-backed swap on FreeBSD
Posted by frase @ 22:35 on 12-01-2009
To setup an NFS-based swapfile on FreeBSD.
on NFS server:
mkdir /var/swap
dd bs=1024 count=256000 if=/dev/zero of=/var/swap/swapfile
Set appropriate owner/permissions on the file and edit /etc/exports to export the file. Substitute desired values for count or path.
on client:
mkdir /tmp/swap
mount -t nfs server:/var/swap/swapfile /tmp/swap
mdconfig -f /var/swap/swapfile
swapon /dev/md%d
This mounts the file, creates a file-backed memory disk and enables swap on the device, where %d is the device number shown in the mdconfig output (`mdconfig -l` will list all md(4) devices).
To disable swapping and unmount:
swapoff /dev/md%d
mdconfig -d -u %d
umount /tmp/swap
