● If only one DIMM is populated on a channel, it should always go to the first slot in that channel (white slot). ● If a PMem and a DDR4 DIMM are populated on the same channel, always install PMem on the second slot (black slot). ● PMem cannot be mixed with other PMem capacities. ● Mixing different capacities of RDIMMs and LRDIMMs are not allowed when PMem is installed. ● PMems of different capacities are not allowed. ● VMware ESXi boot takes longer time when higher capacity of Intel PMem are configured in App Direct mode. This is expected as background ARS is going on the interleave sets and needs to be completed prior the pMem data store is mounted on ESXi. ● App Direct can be populated symmetrically or asymmetrically across sockets. ● In Memory mode symmetry across sockets is required. ● Populate PMem in DIMM slot 1, unless PMem is the only DIMM in that channel and then populate in DIMM slot 0. ● If the PMem goal requirement is changed between App Direct and Memory Mode or vice-versa, it is required to sanitize the DIMMs prior to creating new goal. This is a requirement for VMware ESXi. 14 Hardware

VMware ESXi boot takes longer time when higher capacity of Intel PMem are configured in App Direct mode. This is
expected as background ARS is going on the interleave sets and needs to be completed prior the pMem data store is

●
Populate PMem in DIMM slot 1, unless PMem is the only DIMM in that channel and then populate in DIMM slot 0.
●
If the PMem goal requirement is changed between App Direct and Memory Mode or vice-versa, it is required to sanitize the
DIMMs prior to creating new goal. This is a requirement for VMware ESXi.
