The DAX device name appears in the output as the chardev value.
In the example output above, the DAX device name is dax0.0.
12. Record the DAX device name in the NVDIMM information table.
13. Find the full acceleration device path:
ls -ltr /dev/ | grep dax
The following output should appear:
/dev/daxX.X
For example:
/dev/dax0.0
14. Record the acceleration device path in the NVDIMM information table.
Results
You are now ready to add the DAX device to the NVDIMM Acceleration Pool.
iDRAC Service Module
The iDRAC Service module (iSM) is a small OS-resident process that expands iDRAC management into supported host
operating systems. Services that the iSM adds include OS information, automatic system recovery, and remote server
power cycle.
It also enables NVMe device removal without shutting down or rebooting the system.
