Description
Sometime ago we changed our docs to recommend a swappiness value of 1 for server deployments. See https://docs.couchbase.com/server/current/install/install-swap-space.html.
However, in the installer we still warn if the value is not set to zero. E.g. on RH systems:
SWAPPINESS=`cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness`
|
if [ "$SWAPPINESS" -ne "0" ]
|
then
|
cat <<EOF
|
Warning: Swappiness is not set to 0.
|
Please look at https://docs.couchbase.com/server/@@MAJ_MIN_VER@@/install/install-swap-space.html as for how to PERMANENTLY alter this setting.
|
EOF
|
fi
|
And we have similar behavior on Debian and related systems.
I suggest we change to warn if the swappiness value is not set to either zero or one.
