The example output displays the DIMM's Type Detail as Non-Volatile, signifying
that it is an NVDIMM. The output also displays the NVDIMM serial numbers.
10. In the command output, find the Locator and Serial Number, and record
their values in the NVDIMM information table.
11. Display the list of DIMMs mounted on the server:
ndctl list -Dvvv | jq '.[].dimms'
Output similar to the following should appear:
[
{
"dev": "nmem1",
"id": "802c-0f-1711-1649251b",
"handle": 4097,
"phys_id": 4370,
"state": "disabled",
"health": {
"health_state": "ok",
"temperature_celsius": 255,
"life_used_percentage": 32
}
},
{
"dev": "nmem0",
"id": "802c-0f-1711-",
"handle": 1,
"phys_id": 4358,
"state": "disabled",
"health": {
"health_state": "ok",
"temperature_celsius": 255,
"life_used_percentage": 32
}
}
]
12. In the output from the previous step, find the device (dev) with the id that
partially correlates with the serial number you discovered previously for the
failed device.
For example:
The NVDIMM output displays serial number 16492521 for the NVDIMM
l
device.
In the previous step, the output displays the ID of device nmem0 as
l
802c-0f-1746-802c-0f-1711-16492521.
Serial number
Locator: A7
Serial Number: 16492521
Locator: B7
Serial Number: 1649251B
In the above example, the NMEM name is nmem0.
13. Record the NMEM name in the Device name row of the NVDIMM information
table.
