Hi everyone,
So I installed TrueNAS-12.0-U2.1 on a testing rig. This is for learning purposes and the hardware is not production. 16G ECC, G2020T, HPE Microserver Gen8, 1.5T hdd, 1.0T hdd, and 500G sdd.
During boot, it offered to make a 16G swap partition - yes. So it created the partition and doesn't use it. Instead it is using much smaller 2G parts spread across the data drives.
Questions:
Why is a swap partition made but not used?
What is the recommended way to add and persist it across reboots?
