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.
Selected NVDIMM-Ns are sanitized on the next reboot of the system. The largest group of NVDIMM-Ns selected is sanitized. For
example, if Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N on Processor 1
Sanitize/Erase all NVDIMM-N on Processor 1 is enabled and Sanitize/Erase Processor 1 DIMM 8
on processor 1 are sanitized including processor 1 DIMM 8.
