My complaint with SWAPGEN going back to when it was first announced was that it needs to know the number of blocks to format. This means that if the size or number of the vdisk(s) changes in the directory, the VM admin also has to go to the target machine's 191 disk and update the PROFILE EXEC so the right number of blocks get formatted on the right devices. Having to change things in multiple places seemed like something to be avoided.
Hm. Did you ever send us a requirement for that? If so, I apologize for having missed it. Since we already look for the number of blocks in the "reuse" code, I think it should be pretty straightforward to do that check and then use the number of blocks detected if the user doesn't specify.
