Modules

Below picture shows how the NVDIMM-N devices will appear in the Persistent Memory tab under the Storage heading in the

left menu bar. The first column is an ID to uniquely identify the NVDIMM-N in the event the information is needed for

troubleshooting. The next column indicates free space and it is expected to be “0 B” for all NVDIMM-N devices that are fully

mapped and operated correctly. Health should be Normal. Detailed explanation of Health section is provided in “Overall health

Status” below.

Translation of ID to physical NVDIMM-N in host system can be seen below.

Namespaces

All Namespace names are automatically generated by ESXi when the NVDIMM-N modules are detected on startup. These

Namespaces will persist over warm reset and cold boot of the system after first detection/creation.
