Yes it is a very old operating system, but it is not my decision
though.
I need to add one new disk and put the swap at the new disk.
Would any one please provide some information how to do parition and I
can
configure swap space on the new disk.
Thanks

Please provide context when you post. If I hadn't
responded earlier I wouldn't know what you were
discussing.
To partition - use "format". It is a menu oriented
program so read the man page and inspect the menu
options carefully. Basically you slice-n-dice the
drive, keep the "c" partition to be an overlap of the
entire drive, pick one of the partitions to use as
swap, and then enter that partion into /etc/fstab.
On the fly I think "swapon -a" may work, but look
through /etc/rc and follow it's chain of events
looking for how it enables swap spaces. Then use
what it uses or reboot.
