Linux swap使用率过高解决办法

1、查看占用sawp内存较高进程
for i in `cd /proc;ls |grep "^[0-9]"|awk ' $0 >100'` ;do awk '/Swap:/{a=a+$2}END{print '"$i"',a/1024"M"}' /proc/$i/smaps ;done 2>&1 |sort -k2nr |head

2、如何释放swap内存
（1）对占用swap内存较高的进程进行重启；
（2）关闭swap分区

3、关闭swap分区步骤及注意事项
（1）确保系统空闲内存大于swap已用内存；
（2）可以先清理内存cache，空出足够内存
cat /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
sync;sync;sync;echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

（3）关闭swap分区，这个过程需要等待；
swapoff -a
（4）swap分区释放后，恢复swap分区；
swapon -a

（5）恢复内存cache的设置
sync;sync;sync;echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches #适用于EL6

lvm下扩展swap分区方法：
lvextend -L +8G /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap
sync;sync;sync;echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
swapoff /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap
mkswap  /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap
swapon  /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap


问题1：
# swapoff /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap
swapoff: /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap: swapoff failed: Cannot allocate memory
解决办法：
dd if=/dev/zero of=/xwx_swap bs=1G count=16
mkswap /xwx_swap
swapon /xwx_swap
nohup swapoff /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap &

# swapoff /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap
swapoff: /dev/mapper/vg_root-lv_swap: swapoff failed: Cannot allocate memory
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/xwx_swap bs=1G count=16
