zvol_swap/setup fails due to memory usage
100%
Description
zvol/zvol_swap/setup can fail because too much memory is used:
NOTE: Executing: swap -d /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap
NOTE: Executing: swap -d /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap1
Unable to delete swap device /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap1 because of insufficient RAM
State of the system:
$ swap -l
swapfile dev swaplo blocks free
/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap 65,2 8 4194296 4194296
$ swap -s
total: 812132k bytes allocated + 30316k reserved = 842448k used, 2049048k available
$ sudo swap -d /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap
/dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap: Not enough space
To reduce memory usage, I did (in order of decreasing utility):
$ sudo pkill fmd
(fmd will be restarted but with less memory usage – 400MB vs ~30MB)
$ sudo svcadm disable postgres
$ sudo svcadm disable misc
$ sudo svcadm disable stmf-logging
After this I see:
$ swap -s
total: 385356k bytes allocated + 30088k reserved = 415444k used, 2657196k available
And am then able to delete the swap device:
$ sudo swap -d /dev/zvol/dsk/rpool/swap
Would recommend changing the setup to restart fmd from zvol_swap/setup.

Because of additional failures from zvol_swap/setup even after the original change, we've decided to disable this suite entirely until we are able to dedicate resources to solving the full issue.
