SWAP DISK 301 Disappears After zVM Guest Logoff

Hello all,
I'm using the shareware SWAPGEN EXEC to create two swap disks (300 & 301) for my SUSE 11 SP3 guest. First of all during installation both disks are listed as formatted but only the 300 retains a mount point of swap . I have to mkswap for the 301 and then add the following line to /etc/fstab ==> /dev/disk/by-path/ccw-0.0.0301-part1 swap swap defaults 0 0
If I reboot the system the swap disk stays intact. Once I log the guest off it's gone.

Does anyone know how to make this permanent?

Thanks for letting me know. After making my first post and monitoring other forums I realized I probably should of used this forum instead of LQ Newbie. I didn't see a way to remove the post. Is there? Or do I close the one in Newbie?

You cannot remove posts yourself.
