Figure 26. Namespaces created on ESXi out of the interleave sets exposed
After creating the namespaces, ESXi automatically creates a PMem datastore and mounts it as a datastore for the users to
consume it.

PMem in Memory mode
When Intel PMem is configured in memory mode, ESXi sees it as system memory.
NOTE:
The inventory details in the vSphere HTML client will not be available if Intel PMem is set to Memory mode. There is
no datastore created in memory mode as ESXi creates in Intel PMem App-direct mode.
PMem health status
ESXi provides multiple health status for PMem such as "Maintenance needed", "All data loss" and "Normal".
ESXi reports the health of the specific PMems as 'Maintenance needed",when there is a health error.
Figure 28. PMem health warning
ESXi reports the health of the specific PMems as "All data loss", when there is a fatal error.
