Hello,
Just in case anyone wants to follow my original problem in the future, I
resolved my no swap problem according to Nate's advice as follows:
1. Confirmed that /dev/VolGroup00/swap was not in use by the system
2. Ran the following commands:
mkswap /dev/VolGroup00/swap
swapon /dev/VolGroup00/swap
3. Added the following to fstab:
/dev/VolGroup00/swap swap swap defaults
0 0
Swap partition now showing as follows, using 'free':
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3960252 463208 3497044 0 30876 350164
-/+ buffers/cache: 82168 3878084
Swap: 2031608 0 2031608
Thanks to the list and Nate in particular for the assistance.
