Can check if you're using swap with sudo swapon --show
and free -h
.
Useful for t2.micro and other instances with no access to instance store. Use this if you prefer not to mess with the root volume.
- Create the EBS volume e.g., 1 GB.
# Ubuntu 14.04 don't have nsenter - the straight forward way required me to install build tools and etc. | |
# I preferred to keep the system clean and install nsenter in a container and then copy the command to the host | |
# Note - its also possible to run nsenter from a container (didn't tried) https://github.com/jpetazzo/nsenter | |
# start a container | |
docker run --name nsenter -it ubuntu:14.04 bash | |
## in the docker | |
apt-get update | |
