Swap Space

Swap space is almost not needed because NFS servers do not run user processes.

To Set Up Swap Space

1. Configure at least 64 Mbytes virtual memory, which is RAM plus swap space (see Table 4-3).

2. Set up fifty percent of main memory as an emergency swap space to save a crash dump in case of a system panic.

   Table 4-4 Swap Space Requirements

   Amount of RAM	Swap Space Requirements
   16 Mbytes	48 Mbytes
   32 Mbytes	32 Mbytes
   64 or more Mbytes	None
