Summary: Maximum size of swap partition in cluster 5.1b-3

Hello Managers,
A very late summary, but I did not get around to trying to fix the 
problem until last week.

It seems it was actually a non-issue. The clu_create/clu_add_member 
command only allows an 8gb swap partition on the default partition on 
the member boot disk. However, after adding the member, I merely 
relabelled the disk, extending the b partition ( without moving the 
other partitions) while the member was shutdown, and rebooted. The 
system saw the extended swap partition.

Thanks to  Vincent Jean-Marc who gave me way to modify the default 
swap size before creating the member. I did not test this since my 
cluster was already built.
Here is Vincent's response:

You should edit /usr/sbin/cluster/clu_common lib script for
MaxSwapPartSize:

...
typeset -r MaxSwapPartSize=16777216

Hello all,

Apparently, the default maximum swap partition size in the creation 
of a cluster member (5.1b-3) is 8gb.  Last year, I found the file 
which could be edited to raise that limit.  I thought it was a 
parameter in /etc/sysconfigtab, but now I can't find the reference.

How can I raise the maximum swap partition size for a cluster member in 5.1b-3?

Thanks.

John
