# ndctl
> Utility for managing Non-Volatile DIMMs.
- Create an 'fsdax' mode namespace:
`ndctl create-namespace --mode={{fsdax}}`
- Change the mode of a namespace to 'raw':
`ndctl create-namespace --reconfigure={{namespaceX.Y}} --mode={{raw}}`
- Check a sector mode namespace for consistency, and repair if needed:
`ndctl check-namespace --repair {{namespaceX.Y}}`
- List all namespaces, regions, and buses (including disabled ones):
`ndctl list --namespaces --regions --buses --idle`
- List a specific namespace and include lots of additional information:
`ndctl list -vvv --namespace={{namespaceX.Y}}`
- Run a monitor to watch for SMART health events for NVDIMMs on the 'ACPI.NFIT' bus:
`ndctl monitor --bus={{ACPI.NFIT}}`
- Remove a namespace (when applicable) or reset it to an initial state:
`ndctl destroy-namespace --force {{namespaceX.Y}}`
