How To Install and Boot Microsoft Hyper-V 2019 from Persistent Memory (or not)

• How to

In a previous post  I described how to install and boot Fedora Linux using only Persistent Memory, no SSDs are required. For this follow on post, I attempted to install Microsoft Windows Server 2022 onto the persistent memory.

TL;DR - I was able to select the PMem devices as the install disk, but when the installer begins to write data, we get an “Error code: 0xC0000005”. I haven’t found a solution to this problem (yet).

How to Boot Linux from Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory

• How to , Linux

Introduction

In this article, I will demonstrate how to configure a system with Intel Optane Persistent Memory (PMem) and use part of the PMem as a boot device. This little known feature can reduce boot times for those that need it.

The basic steps include:

• Configure the Persistent Memory in AppDirect Interleaved
• Create two small SECTOR namespaces, one per Region
• Install the OS and select one or both of the namespaces (single disk install, or mirrored LVM)

Configure the Persistent Memory

The following figure shows how we will provision the persistent memory.
