calculate swap size

rino19nyJun 17 2012 — edited Jun 18 2012

i initially have,

swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
*/dev/md/dsk/d1 85,1 16 44049984 44049984*

then memory was upgraded to 80GB. so i created a 60GB swap file,

-rw------T 1 root root 64424509440 Jun 12 19:47 /u5/swap

so i have,

swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
*/dev/md/dsk/d1 85,1 16 44049984 44049984*
*/u5/swap - 16 125829104 125829104*

question is, when i do a swap -s i get

total: 17711064k bytes allocated + 1224592k reserved = 18935656k used, 135738232k available

where did the additional swap area came from?

i was expecting to see the 60GB swap file i created in addition to what as there before.
