Creating a swap partition

Published September 27th, 2009

Recently our data center had a power issue and rebooted all our servers. In this process, one of the server had an issue with the swap partition (/dev/sda3). So we decided to recreate it as follows:

# mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda3
# mkswp /dev/sda3 1024
