Hello Debians.
wanted to try using swap memory enhancing service called zram - but cant get it working properly i think.
I am having a bit of trouble enabling / starting zram service ,
loaded the module with - sudo modprobe zram
checked if it loaded correct - lsmod | grep zram
got the answer -
zram 40960 0
zsmalloc 28672 1 zram
created the servicefile zram.service in etc/systemd/system with -
[Unit] Description=ZRAM Swap Service [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/sbin/modprobe zram ExecStart=/bin/bash -c "echo lz4 > /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm" ExecStart=/bin/bash -c "echo 2G > /sys/block/zram0/disksize" ExecStart=/sbin/mkswap /dev/zram0 ExecStart=/sbin/swapon /dev/zram0 [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
reloaded systemd to register the new service - sudo systemctl daemon-reload
activated service to make it autostart - sudo systemctl enable zram.service
but got this message - Failed to enable unit: File zram.service: Bad message
started the service - sudo systemctl start zram.service
but got this message - Failed to start zram.service: Unit zram.service failed to load properly, please adjust/correct and reload service manager: Bad message
See system logs and 'systemctl status zram.service' for details.
log entry:
08:50:49 sudo: lindis : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/lindis ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/systemctl start zram.service
08:47:13 sudo: lindis : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/lindis ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/systemctl enable zram.service
08:46:50 sudo: lindis : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/lindis ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/systemctl daemon-reload
tried to run to see to see if zram is active and used as swap - swapon --show
but got this message - zsh: command not found: swapon
So i guess that command is not available to use or not excisting.
Cant figure out what is not correct.
Happy for any help.
