When relocating HPE Persistent Memory modules to another system.

When reinstalling HPE Persistent Memory modules after replacing the system system board.
IMPORTANT: When data must be preserved, Hewlett Packard Enterprise strongly recommends that you perform a
manual backup of all user data on the HPE Persistent Memory modules before changing the goal configuration or
performing relocation procedures.
Requirements for relocating HPE Persistent Memory modules or a set of HPE Persistent Memory modules when the
data must be preserved
•
The destination system hardware must match the original system hardware configuration.
•
All System Utilities settings in the destination system must match the original System Utilities settings in the original
system.
•
If HPE Persistent Memory modules are used with Persistent Memory Interleaving set to Enabled in the original
system, do the following:
◦
Install the HPE Persistent Memory modules in the same DIMM slots in the destination system.
◦
Install the entire interleaved set (all the DIMMs and HPE Persistent Memory modules on the processor) on the
destination system.
If any of the requirements cannot be met during relocation, do the following:
◦
Manually back up the persistent memory data before relocating HPE Persistent Memory modules to another
system.
◦
Relocate the HPE Persistent Memory modules to another system.
◦
Sanitize all HPE Persistent Memory modules on the new system before using them.
Requirements for relocating encrypted HPE Persistent Memory modules or a set of HPE Persistent Memory modules
when the data must be preserved
•
If HPE Persistent Memory modules are encrypted with local key management, either manually retrieve the HPE
Persistent Memory module passwords from the system (user-generated passwords only) or export a password file to a
USB key.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends exporting the password file to a USB key.
•
Follow the requirements for relocating HPE Persistent Memory modules or a set of HPE Persistent Memory modules
when the data must be preserved.
•
Do one of the following:
◦
If HPE Persistent Memory modules are encrypted with local key management, either manually enter the HPE
Persistent Memory module passwords in the System Utilities or import the password file from the USB key.
◦
If HPE Persistent Memory modules are encrypted with remote key management, enroll the HPE iLO in the key
management server to provide access to the data on the HPE Persistent Memory modules.
