  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Seems i don't have Swap

simmons

New Pleskian
i'm struggling these days on low memory and server problems and just for a case i've seen in the server statistics that the swap is 0.
So i checked with top and htop and yes i have no swap!
How could be this is even possible?
And what i can do to create it back?

Code:
Versione    Plesk Obsidian v18.0.27_build1800200508.17 os_Ubuntu 18.04
OS    Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
 
Plesk does not manage SWAP space. Refer to the corresponding operating system manual for exact instructions on managing SWAP space/partition.

Note: that according to Plesk hardware requirements, a minimum of 1 GB swap is required for Plesk on Linux server. Moreover, generally, it is not recommended to disable swap completely - Do we really need swap on modern systems?
The RAM usage may increase due to the high number of visitors or during daily maintenance tasks (e.g. statistics calculation, spam train, etc.). With swap disabled, the lack of RAM may lead to a server crash.
