DESCRIPTION

The Lockdown command is used to control the Command and Feature Lockdown capability which configures the prohibition or allowance of execution of the specified command or Set Features command targeting a specific Feature Identifier.

OPTIONS

-O <ofi>, --ofi=<ofi>

-f <ifc>, --ifc=<ifc>

Interface (INF) field identifies the interfaces affected by this command.

-p <prhbt>, --prhbt=<prhbt>

-s <scp>, --scp=<scp>

Scope (SCP) field specifies the contents of the Opcode or Feature Identifier field.

-U <UUID_Index>, --uuid=<UUID_Index>

UUID Index - If this field is set to a non-zero value, then the value of this field is the index of a UUID in the UUID List that is used by the command. If this field is cleared to 0h,then no UUID index is specified.

These options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). A command-line flag always overrides the file.
