Configuring NVDIMM-N Options
Procedure
1. From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration > BIOS/Platform Configuration
(RBSU) > Memory Options > Persistent Memory Options > NVDIMM-N Options.
2. Select Enabled or Disabled for the following options:
• NVDIMM-N Support
• NVDIMM-N Interleaving
• NVDIMM-N Sanitize/Erase on Next Reboot Policy
IMPORTANT: Sanitizing/Erasing an NVDIMM-N results in the loss of all user data saved in
the NVDIMM-N. Hewlett Packard Enterprise strongly recommends that you perform a manual
backup of all user data in the NVDIMM-Ns before sanitizing/erasing the NVDIMM-Ns.
• Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N in the System
• Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N on Processor—These menu items differ based on your server
configuration.
• Sanitize/Erase Processor 1 DIMM 2—These menu items differ based on your server
configuration.
3. Save your changes.
NVDIMM-N Support
This option enables NVDIMM-N support (including backing up the contents of the memory to flash on
power down or reset) to be enabled or disabled. If Disabled is selected for this option, the NVDIMM-Ns in
the system are not presented to the operating system as either persistent storage or system memory.
NVDIMM-N Sanitize/Erase on Next Reboot Policy
This setting is part of the process to sanitize or erase all user data and error status data saved in the
selected NVDIMM-Ns. After enabling the NVDIMM-N Sanitize/Erase on Next Reboot Policy, the screen
displays various options for sanitizing NVDIMMs. The following selections are available depending on the
NVDIMM-Ns installed on the server:
• Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N in the System — Sanitizes all NVDIMM-Ns installed in the server on
reboot.
• Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N on Processor X— Sanitizes all NVDIMM-Ns installed in the DIMM slots
for processor X on reboot.
• Sanitize/Erase Processor X DIMM Y — Sanitizes the NVDIMM-N installed in DIMM slot Y for
processor X on reboot. A selection is available for each Processor X DIMM slot that contains an
NVDIMM-N.
