A method for managing a non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM)-based storage subsystem, the method including: monitoring, by a slave controller on a NVRAM device of the NVRAM-based storage subsystem, an I/O operation on the NVRAM device; identifying, by the slave controller and based on the monitoring, at least one occurrence of error data; comparing, by the slave controller, a numeric aspect of the at least one occurrence of error data with a threshold setting; reporting, by the slave controller on the NVRAM device and to a master controller of the NVRAM-based storage subsystem, the at least one occurrence of error data in response to the numeric aspect crossing the threshold setting; and ascertaining, by the master controller of the NVRAM-based storage system, a physical location of a defect region on the NVRAM device where the error data has occurred by analyzing the reported at least one occurrence of error data.
