NAME

       ipmctl-dump-goal - Stores the current configured memory allocation settings to a file

SYNOPSIS

           ipmctl dump [OPTIONS] -destination (path) -system -config

DESCRIPTION

       Store the currently configured memory allocation settings for all PMem modules in the
       system to a file in order to replicate the configuration elsewhere. Apply the stored
       memory allocation settings using the command Section [Load Memory Allocation Goal].

OPTIONS

       -h, -help
           Displays help for the command.

       -ddrt
           Used to specify DDRT as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of
           ipmctl.

       -smbus
           Used to specify SMBUS as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of
           ipmctl.

           Note
           The -ddrt and -smbus options are mutually exclusive and may not be used together.

       -lpmb
           Used to specify large transport payload size for the current invocation of ipmctl.

       -spmb
           Used to specify small transport payload size for the current invocation of ipmctl.

           Note
           The -lpmb and -spmb options are mutually exclusive and may not be used together.

       -o (text|nvmxml), -output (text|nvmxml)
           Changes the output format. One of: "text" (default) or "nvmxml".

EXAMPLES

       Stores the memory allocation settings from all the PMem modules into the file
       "config.txt".

           ipmctl dump -destination config.txt -system -config

LIMITATIONS

       In order to successfully execute this command:

       •   The caller must have the appropriate privileges.

       •   Only memory allocation settings for manageable PMem modules that have been
           successfully applied by the BIOS are stored in the file. Unconfigured PMem modules are
           not included, nor are memory allocation goals that have not been applied.

RETURN DATA

       The CLI will indicate the overall status of the operation when complete. If a failure
       occurs when dumping the memory allocation from multiple PMem modules, the process will
       stop and the output file will be removed.

       The output file is formatted as an ASCII file with one row per PMem module containing the
       following comma separated values.

       SocketID
           Identifier for the socket the PMem module is associated with.

       DimmHandle
           PMem module device handle.

       Capacity
           Total capacity of the PMem module in GiB.

       MemorySize
           Capacity of the PMem module allocated as Memory Mode in GiB.

       AppDirect1Size
           Capacity of the PMem module allocated for the first App Direct interleave set in GiB.

       AppDirect1Format
           Bit mask representing the interleave format of the first App Direct interleave set.

       AppDirect1Index
           Unique index of the first App Direct interleave set.

       AppDirect2Size
           Capacity of the PMem module allocated for the second App Direct interleave set in GiB.

       AppDirect2Format
           Bit mask representing the interleave format of the second App Direct interleave set.

       AppDirect2Index
           Unique index of the second App Direct interleave set.
