Subject: swap is at 100%
I just go an alert that swap is at 100%

 Memory              Used       Total  Percentage
green Physical           1827M      15296M         11%
green Actual              554M      15296M          3%
red Swap           15294456M   15294456M        100%

I logged into the box and it is basically idling.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

That seems like a ridiculously large swap size for a 16G(?) box... What OS
is this? And can you provide the output of `free`? Perhaps there's a
parsing/output error here?
