1- Yes, the primary swap is actvive on reboot. These settings are used by the firmware and kernel at boot time because the system can't read the /etc/fstab file until the root filesystem is mounted.

2- swap gets active at: /sbin/rc1.d $cat /sbin/init.d/swap_start

3- good info I found:

 Question was:

> The swap device created with the OS
> /dev/vg00/lvol2 shows up with swapinfo but not
> in /etc/fstab. Other devices do.
>
> Is this device active automatically at reboot?
>
> swapinfo shows:
> # swapinfo -tam
