I've made a partition on CentOS7 and rebooted.
However when I now issue mkswap on that partition I get a busy message:
mkswap /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdb1: Device or resource busy
What's the problem?

[root@centos1 ~]# fdisk /dev/sdb

Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.
