4. Change Persistent percentage as 100% to configure Intel DCPMM into 100% App-direct Mode and 0% to configure the
DIMMs into 100% memory mode.
NOTE: The Persistent memory type field is for configuring a new goal. It is not for reading the status of the current
goal. Use instructions under DCPMM Hardware Status to confirm current configuration.
5. Click Apply and reset the system.
6. Goals will be applied into operating modes (either App-direct or Memory) in the next power cycle.
DCPMM remaining rated write endurance
DCPMM remaining lifetime is reflected as Remaining Rated Write Endurance in the IDRAC GUI. It is displayed under System
> Overview > Memory.
Key limitations and feature information:
● The feature does not work if the system is halted in BIOS such as the BIOS setup. If the system stays in this state for long
periods, the endurance for all DCPMM reports as 0% as status cannot be retrieved. To resolve, the user needs to boot into
the operating system and wait up to 24 hours for the next automatic poll of status.
● The values do not change frequently and are polled once per day. If the user performs a System Erase or Repurpose and
Retire, it destroys the stored values for this feature. DCPMM will be displayed as 0% after such an operation until the next
automatic poll within 24 hours.
