Abstract
A method of selectively disabling power delivery to a group of memory devices of an information handling system, the method including performing an initialization of a first memory device and a second memory device of the memory devices; after performing the initialization of the memory devices, performing boot procedures at the first memory device and the second memory device; while performing the boot procedures at the first memory device and the second memory device, detecting a memory failure of the first memory device; in response to detecting the memory failure of the first memory device, providing a signal to a power management integrate circuit (PMIC) of the first memory device to disable power at the first memory device; and continuing the boot procedures at the second memory device.
