How do I free my swap usage. I can login to Plesk and it says my swap usage is at 100%. I can't view any of my websites. Please help.

Thanks, john

It sounds as though you are maxing out your RAM. You may want to upgrade either your RAM and/or have your host increase your SWAP space (which would be more of a band-aid approach).

You can probably have your host increase your swap using available disk space but that isn't going to make it very fast. Upgrade your VPS, you need more RAM.

Restart your services like HTTPD and MySQL. If that fails to work, reboot the server. It's time for you to find a 'real' dedicated server instead of a VPS if you keep maxing out on swap usage.
