we issue the swapgen command as follows:
swapgen 0205 30000 ( FBA )
we receive in response:
Error 91 from CP DEFINE VFB-512 AS 0205 BLK 30000:
HCPLNM091E DASD 0205 not defined; vdisk space not available
So...we decide to just do a mkswap, swapon for a VDISK defined in the
user directory
MDISK 0205 FB-512 V-DISK 30000 WV
from mkswap we get:
lnx2142:~# mkswap /dev/dasdf1
/dev/dasdf1: No such file or directory
lnx2142:~# mkswap /dev/dasd/0205
mkswap: error: swap area needs to be at least 40kB
Usage: mkswap [-c] [-v0|-v1] [-pPAGESZ] /dev/name [blocks]

I have been using a cms V-DISK for linux swap file on my SLES8 images.
I have recently installed a debian distribution, but did not see how to
assign this v-disk to swap. can any one point me towards the path of
least resistance?
That would be SWAPGEN, at http://www.sinenomine.net/downloads.
Then just put /dev/dasd/0151/part1 or whatever in /etc/fstab as swap.
