I have a server that was setup with RAID1 so that the data would not be lost
on a drive failure. However, I since realized I did not RAID the swap file
and so in the event of a drive failure the server would crash.
How can I convert the swap partition to RAID? I replaced /dev/hdc and
partitioned it tbe same as /dev/had, and rebuild /dev/md0 and /dev/md1, but
need to find a way to get the swap to be /dev/md2.
