Swap for 512 GB server
 
DBAs have requested that the System needs 512 Gb of memory. What is the preferred swap value for this OEL 6.3 server running oracle ?
OEL - Oracle Enterprise Linux

with 512 Gig ram
none

but for the odd program that might WANT a swap space
2 to 4 gig

Our target is not use swap at all. 2g enough to say that swap just exist.

I later found in OEL, Oracle recommendation is 16 Gb of swap for 512 GB of RAM & in Redhat, Redhat recommendation is 32 Gb of swap for 512 GB of RAM.
