Increase swap

apijnappels
We have to reboot our UTM320 HA-setup every now and then because the swap file usage slowly increases every day.
It seems that it is okay to only reboot the member that currently has the high swap usage (right now the master uses 46%, while the slave only uses 23%).

I stumbled upon this document from Sophos indicating how to increase the swap size to about 4GB.

Does this mean it is safe to do so without voiding support?

    It doesn't look like you're suffering from anything related to the other issues in that post (snort and/or httpproxy).  I don't think that you need to worry about your swap, and that it will not grow above 60%.  Forcing a failover to the Slave with a reboot is a good way to solve this problem temporarily.

    If you start seeing CPU spikes caused by 90+% swap usage, then please rerun swapusage.pl and add the results to that thread.

    Cheers - Bob
