Hibernation requires a configured swap device. See [https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#ch-installation installation instructions] on how to create a swap partition.

Please note that <code>resumeDevice</code> must match the output of <code>swapon -s</code> especially if you're dealing with mapped volumes (LUKS, logical volumes, logical volumes under LUKS, etc.). If you're using a swapfile, you must also [https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=unstable&show=boot.resumeDevice&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=resume+offset specify the offset to it.]

Therefore, an example configuration could look like this:<syntaxhighlight lang="nix">

I'm hibernating into a logical volume that's also under LUKS. Pretty cool, right?
