Well, maybe not "forever" ... ;-)

You might also consider using a real disk to back the v-disk for the peak
period swap, so that it doesn't add additional memory pressure to the
underlying z/VM system.

You might consider a manual 'swapoff' (then 'swapon') of one large
swap volume after that crunch time. In any case, this is one where
you should reconsider how much VDISK to use. Obviously, there's a lot
happening when it gets that end-of-month workload, so remember to
include CPU and other I/O w

Yes, having 4 is a little odd. We are struggling with this server. It sits
almost idle most of the month then for 1 or 2 days it gets 60 to 80 thousand
hits/hour.
Not sure what to make of this current display of the swap space.

That's what you want when you're using "spindles", but on z, you're usually
talking about v-disks, which are really virtual disks in memory. When
they're not in use, they take up no space at all, but when you start using
them, they start to occupy real memory and become a burden. So you set

One of our Redhat servers got a LOT of activity yesterday and the swap space
