Creating namespaces using UEFI System UtilitiesCreating namespaces using UEFI System Utilities
IMPORTANT:IMPORTANT:
Be sure to observe all pop-up messages displayed in UEFI System Utilities that pertain to persistent memory. Failure to
follow the instructions in these messages might cause persistent memory data loss.
NOTE:NOTE:
If you are using HPE Persistent Memory with VMware vSphere, creating namespaces is not required. VMware vSphere
automatically creates namespaces upon rebooting.
Namespaces define persistent memory regions on the HPE Persistent Memory modules.
