c) Is the rightmost digit of the binary number equal to 1?
• Yes: The NVMe device has low spares. Continue with the next step.
• No: A service action is not required. This ends the procedure.
7. The NVMe device is nearing its end of life and must be replaced. The NVMe device will soon reach the
limit for the number of write operations that are supported. Write operations to the NVMe device
become slower over time, and at some point the NVMe device becomes a read-only device. When the
operating system writes data to a read-only device, the write operations are rejected, and the
operating system considers the device as if a failure occurred. To support normal write operations,
schedule maintenance to replace the NVMe device at your earliest convenience.
Note: Failure of IBM NVMe devices is covered in the standard warranty and during the maintenance
period only for devices that have not reached the maximum number of write cycles. Devices that reach
this limit might fail to operate according to specifications and must be replaced. This replacement cost
is not covered under the standard warranty or during the maintenance period.
This ends the procedure.
