Server requirements for NVDIMM support

Before installing an HPE 16GB NVDIMM in a server, make sure that the following components and software are available:

  • A supported HPE server using Intel Xeon Scalable Processors: For more information, see the NVDIMM QuickSpecs on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/qs).
  • An HPE Smart Storage Battery
  • A minimum of one regular DIMM: The system cannot have only NVDIMM-Ns installed.
  • A supported operating system with persistent memory/NVDIMM drivers. For the latest software information, see the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://persistentmemory.hpe.com).
  • For minimum firmware versions, see the HPE 16GB NVDIMM User Guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/nvdimm-docs).

To determine NVDIMM support for your server, see the server QuickSpecs on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/qs).
