What is the error injection mechanism for the poison bit?

[LRied]

ndctl does not seem to work:

[root@lenovo-sr950 ~]# ndctl inject-error --block=12 --count=1 namespace0.0

libndctl: ndctl_namespace_inject_error2: Injection failed at block c

Unable to inject error: Operation not supported (-95)

Hello LRied, Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory & Storage Support. As we understand, you need assistance with your Lenovo* ThinkSystem SR950 Server. If we infer correctly we advise you to contact your OEM (original equipment manufacturer) in order to get further information regarding this feature and how to use it on your server. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Best regards, Josh B. Intel® Customer Support Technician Under Contract to Intel Corporation

Wow...that was so useless. What is the point of having a forum?

Hello LRied, Thank you for your reply, The reason why we are suggesting you contact Lenovo* is because the components/ features and software on your server system were modified by the OEM in order to fit their needs and are specific for every manufacturer. For this reason, only the OEM can provide you with the needed assistance. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Best regards, Josh B.
