RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Harald Hoyer 2013-09-16 22:30:10 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1008604 +++

Swap space in  Fedora 20 is not detected. 

/etc/fstab

/dev/mapper/luks-UUID2 /                       ext4
defaults,x-systemd.device-timeout=0 1 1
UUID=UUID-BOOT         /boot                   ext4 defaults        1 2
/dev/mapper/luks-UUID1 swap                    swap
defaults,x-systemd.device-timeout=0 0 0 

/etc/crypttab
luks-UUID1 UUID=UUID1 none
luks-UUID2 UUID=UUID2 none 

If I type swapon -s - it shows nothing. But if I do swapon -a and then
check, swap is used.

# swapon -a

# swapon -s
Filename                Type        Size    Used    Priority
/dev/dm-1                                  partition    7810044 0    -1 

The same setup works on Fedora 19 without problems.

Expected results:
Swap should be detected and used.

I do not know what other information would be needed. I can provide other information/files as needed.

This has now happened on multiple installations.

Pretty sure systemd handles this.  I don't see a dev-*.swap unit anymore as well.

# systemctl | grep swap
swap.target                 loaded active active    Swap

UUID=202dbc9b-291c-428e-bcb0-f4fab2b8d84e swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

Comment 1 Bruno Wolff III 2013-09-17 12:23:26 UTC
systemd-207-2.fc21.i686 fixed this for me in rawhide.

Comment 2 Jorge Villaseñor 2013-09-18 06:36:11 UTC
It looks this one is duplicated of
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008604

Comment 3 Lukáš Nykrýn 2013-10-17 09:49:12 UTC
This patch should be included in the last build.

Comment 4 Tomas Dolezal 2013-11-20 16:39:54 UTC
VERIFIED, swap is active after reboot

using luks partition encryption

pkg: systemd-207-8.el7.x86_64
