Description

ixpdimm_sw [deprecated]

This package has been replaced by ipmctl located at https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jhli/ipmctl/.

IXPDIMM SW is application-level software for configuring and managing Intel DIMMs. It supports functionality to:

Discover Intel DIMMs.

• View and update the firmware on Intel DIMMs.
• Provision the platform memory configuration.
• Create and delete namespaces.
• Configure data-at-rest security on Intel DIMMs.
• Monitor Intel DIMM health.
• Track performance of Intel DIMMs.
• Debug and troubleshoot Intel DIMMs.

IXPDIMM SW refers to the following interface components:

• An Application Programming Interface (API) library which provides programmatic access to the IXPDMIM SW functionality.
• A Common Information Model (CIM) provider library to expose the IXPDIMM SW functionality as standard CIM objects to plug-in to common information model object managers (CIMOMs).
• A Command Line Interface (CLI) application for configuring and managing Intel DIMMs from the command line.
• A monitor daemon/system service for monitoring the health and status of Intel DIMMs.
