 SWAP on ZFS
 ~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-Swap-space created on a zvol may generate some troubles, like blocking the
-server or generating a high IO load, often seen when starting a Backup
-to an external Storage.
-
-We strongly recommend to use enough memory, so that you normally do not
-run into low memory situations. Should you need or want to add swap, it is
-preferred to create a partition on a physical disk and use it as a swap device.
-You can leave some space free for this purpose in the advanced options of the
-installer. Additionally, you can lower the
-``swappiness'' value. A good value for servers is 10:
-
-----
-# sysctl -w vm.swappiness=10
-----
-
-To make the swappiness persistent, open `/etc/sysctl.conf` with
-an editor of your choice and add the following line:
-
---------
-vm.swappiness = 10
---------
-
-.Linux kernel `swappiness` parameter values
-[width="100%",cols="<m,2d",options="header"]
-|===========================================================
-| Value               | Strategy
-| vm.swappiness = 0   | The kernel will swap only to avoid
-an 'out of memory' condition
-| vm.swappiness = 1   | Minimum amount of swapping without
-disabling it entirely.
-| vm.swappiness = 10  | This value is sometimes recommended to
-improve performance when sufficient memory exists in a system.
-| vm.swappiness = 60  | The default value.
-| vm.swappiness = 100 | The kernel will swap aggressively.
-|===========================================================
+It is strongly recommended to not use a ZFS volume for a swap partition because this could lead to deadlocks freezing thge affected system and other unpredictable behavior. The OpenZFS documentation, which can be viewed https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Project%20and%20Community/FAQ.html#using-a-zvol-for-a-swap-device-on-linux[here], warns against using a ZFS volume for a swap partition.
