An information handling system includes a non-volatile dual in-line memory module (NVDIMM) and a processor. The NVDIMM instantiates first and second partitions of non-volatile memory. The first partition is reserved and is not accessible to an operating system instantiated on the information handling system. The second partition is accessible to the operating system. The first partition includes a first region and a second region. The processor boots the information handling system to configure the NVDIMM based upon information from the first region, detects an error associated with the NVDIMM, and writes information associated with the error to the second region.
