Hello everybody,
our customer has a ASA5525 with Firepower Module running OS rel. 6.6.4.
Our monitoring generated a warning because the swap usage reached 90%.
The Health Monitor of the module in the FMC has still no red bubble yet.
When I login to the module I get the following relevant command outputs:
> system support swap
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 3207 2145 1061 0 132 283

How can it be that the swap usage is at 90% when the memory usage is at approx. 67% and
can I reduce the swap space usage anyhow?
Not much to find in the WWW regarding this topic.
Thanks a lot!
Bye
R.
