Ok I installed Nagios XI for the first time from the OVF template into my VMWare envirnoment. It seems to be running fine, except the VM itself is reporting a swap critical issue. How do I fix this?

[root@numbers ~]# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 995 535 460 0 13 98
-/+ buffers/cache: 423 571
Swap: 0 0 0
Remember this wasn't something I created, I used the premade OVF file so this was created and setup in the download. But fo course I do want to fix it.
