Swap file creation

807559Apr 16 2010 — edited Apr 16 2010
Hi all ,

i am getting the following error when trying to add a swap file created in solaris 8 branded zone
bash-2.03# mv swapf test
bash-2.03# ls -l
total 1
-rw------- 1 root other 104857600 Apr 16 11:16 test
bash-2.03# swap -a /oradata/test
"/oradata/test" is not valid for swapping.
It must be a block device or a regular file with the
"save user text on execution" bit set.
bash-2.03#


Any idea why is this not possible this way?
