make a slice (using format utility),or make a file on
existing file system (using mkfile command) of required
size.
then add this to swap using
swap -a /dewv/dsk/c#t#d#s# or file path
also make entry in /etc/vfsab to add it permanent
verify it by using
swap -l
swap -s

Answer / prashant raut
There are two ways to add swap in Sun Server(i.e. Sun
Solaris) as below;
1. Make a partion at availbale free disk of required swap
size and then make an entry in /etc/vfstab file. After that
run the command #swapadd /dev/dsk/cXtXdXsX or give the
reconfiguration reboot to the Server.
2. Instead of making partion you can create make a file of
required swap size with the help of #mkfile <size>
<filename> command and after that make an entry
in /etc/vfstab and follow rest of steps mention in point
one.
