Using the Command Line Interface
You can administer and use MemVerge Memory Machine using the Command Line Interface (CLI) on any installed host.

Overview and Installation
Getting started with MemVerge Memory Machine requries that you understand some background information about how persistent memory works. You can then install Memory Machine on a server and begin monitoring memory usage and capturing application snapshots.
Using the Memory Machine Dashboard
You can view system resources and performance metrics, and create and restore snapshots in MemVerge Memory Machine using the Memory Machine Dashboard, a web UI application running on one of the installed hosts.
Using the Command Line Interface
You can administer and use MemVerge Memory Machine using the Command Line Interface (CLI) on any installed host.
- MemVerge Memory Machine Administration
  MemVerge Memory Machine can be installed and run using CLI commands.
- Using Snapshots in the Memory Machine CLI
  Use the mvmcli command from the CLI on a Memory Machine host to capture the state of a running process, then later restore the running process to the state captured in the snapshot.
- Troubleshooting
- Preparing Intel Optane DC PMEM
  Prepare PMEM for use by configuring the Intel Optane DC Direct Access (DAX) devices in AppDirect AppDirect mode.
- Preparing to Run an Application
  Normally you run applications by using the mm wrapper script supplied with Memory Machine. See oxy_ex-3/topics/t_mvmm_running_an_application_with_mvmm.html. If you do not use the mm to run your application, you must set up the Memory Machine environment manually before running the application.
