increase swap space

[klaus d mueller]

Someone knows ?? 

I'm having problems with my swap space being too small. So I thought about
creating a big file and using SWAPON <file name> to add this file to my swap 
space. Will this create a problem when the file is not written in contiguous 
blocks ?

OR

Is there a way to divide an existing partition into two pieces without 
having to re-format the entire hard disk ?

I have a DECStation 3100 running ULTRIX version 3. Thank's for your help.
