Requirements for relocating NVDIMMs or a set of NVDIMMs when the data does not have to be preserved
If data on the NVDIMM-N or set of NVDIMM-Ns does not have to be preserved, then
•
Move the NVDIMM-Ns to the new location and sanitize all NVDIMM-Ns after installing them to the new location. For
more information, see NVDIMM sanitization on page 54.
Observe all DIMM and NVDIMM population guidelines. For more information, see DIMM and NVDIMM population

HPE Persistent Memory option
HPE Persistent Memory, which offers the flexibility to deploy as dense memory or fast storage and features Intel Optane
DC Persistent Memory, enables per-socket memory capacity of up to 3.0 TB. HPE Persistent Memory, together with
traditional volatile DRAM DIMMs, provide fast, high-capacity, cost-effective memory and storage to transform big data
workloads and analytics by enabling data to be stored, moved, and processed quickly.
HPE Persistent Memory modules use the standard DIMM form factor and are installed alongside DIMMs in a server
memory slot. HPE Persistent Memory modules are designed for use only with second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable
processors, and are available in the following capacities:
•
128 GB
•
256 GB
•
512 GB
HPE Persistent Memory module-processor compatibility
HPE Persistent Memory modules are supported only in servers with second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors
installed.
HPE Persistent Memory population information
For specific population and configuration information, see the memory population guidelines on the Hewlett Packard
Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/docs/memory-population-rules).
System requirements for HPE Persistent Memory module support
IMPORTANT: Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you implement best practice configurations for high
availability (HA) such as clustered configurations.
Before installing HPE Persistent Memory modules, make sure that the following components and software are available:
