Can Intel TME work with Intel Optane Persistent Memory?

Aoyang-Tong — Tue, 19 Sep 2023 04:15:47 GMT

Hello,

Currently, I'm using an Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6330 CPU @ 2.00GHz with Intel Optane Persistent Memory 200 Series in App Direct Mode. I have noticed that the Total Memory Encryption (TME) is supported in the 3rd generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors. So, I would like to know if Intel TME can work with Intel Optane Persistent Memory?

Thanks.

Hi @Aoyang-Tong,

Thank you for your patience. After further check, Intel TME is not compatible with Intel Optane PMem. If Intel TME is enabled, Intel Optane PMem will be disabled.

I hope this clarifies your question. Do let us know if you need any further assistance.

Best regards,
