Dell EMC PMem 100 Series User's Guide

PMem in App-direct mode

Log in to the Host client using ESXi credentials. Go to Storage > Persistent Memory to view the persistent memory modules, the interleave sets created and the namespaces that are created on ESXi.

Select Interleaved when creating a goal. The number of interleaved sets that are exposed will be equal to the number of CPU sockets in the system. Unlike Linux, ESXi automatically creates name spaces on the interleave sets exposed. Dell EMC does not support Non-interleaved App-Direct goals with ESXi.

After creating the namespaces, ESXi automatically creates a PMem datastore and mounts it as a datastore for the users to consume it.
