But… Should I need more swap then I don't really find adding an additional swap device with: # lvcreate -L1g -n /dev/myvg/more-swap-vicar # swapon /dev/myvg/more-swap-vicar # echo '/dev/myvg/more-swap-vicar swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstab any more difficult than your suggestion of resizing a swap that was already in LVM: # swapoff -a # lvresize -L2g /dev/myvg/my-only-swap # mkswap /dev/myvg/my-only-swap # swapon -a Yet in the overwhelmingly common case for me, I never adjust the size of swap so having it outside of LVM means it works even if I somehow break LVM.
