Few days ago I installed FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE in VirtualBox. I used the default disk layout: full disk 32 GB, swap space 2 GB. Now gpart info are
The swap partition size is 1.6 GB and there is about half of a GB free. I also see this behavior when changed my home server to a better hardware and installed FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE on it, the same command on the server shows
there are 93 MB of free space. Back to the virtua machine I wish to resize the swap partition to use that 410 MB free space. What command I have to use? I guess it is
Code:
# gpart show
=> 34 67108797 ada0 GPT (32G)
34 128 1 freebsd-boot (64K)
162 62914432 2 freebsd-ufs (30G)

, but I don't know with what parameters to call it. What index and geom parameters stand for? It's right to call it without specifying the size? Thank you
