NAME¶
nvme-nvme-mi-send - Send a NVMe-MI Send command to the specified device
SYNOPSIS¶
nvme nvme-mi-send <device> [--opcode=<opcode> | -O <opcode>]
[--namespace-id=<nsid> | -n <nsid>]
[--data-len=<data-len> | -l <data-len>]
[--nmimt=<nmimt> | -m <nmimt>]
[--nmd0=<nmd0> | -0 <nmd0>] [--nmd1=<nmd1> | -1 <nmd1>]
[--input-file=<file> | -i <file>]
[--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>] [--verbose | -v]
DESCRIPTION¶
Send a NVMe-MI Send command to the specified device, return results.
The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0) or block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1).
On success it returns 0, error code otherwise.
OPTIONS¶
-O <opcode>, --opcode=<opcode>
The NVMe-MI opcode to send to the device in the
command
-n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid>
The value for the ns-id in the command.
-l <data-len>, --data-len=<data-len>
The data length for the buffer used for this
command.
-m <nmimt>, --nmimt=<nmimt>
The value for the NVMe-MI message type in the
command.
-0 <nmd0>, --nmd0=<nmd0>
The value for the NVMe management request dword 0 in the
command.
-1 <nmd1>, --nmd1=<nmd1>
The value for the NVMe management request dword 1 in the
command.
-i <file>, --input-file=<file>
If the command is a data-out (write) command, use this
file to fill the buffer sent to the device. If no file is given, assumed to
use STDIN.
-o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt>
Set the reporting format to normal, json or
binary. Only one output format can be used at a time.
-v, --verbose
Increase the information detail in the output.
EXAMPLES¶
•Has the program issue a nvme-mi-send to execute
the VPD write.
# nvme nvme-mi-send /dev/nvme0n1 -O 6 -m 1 -0 0 -1 0x100 -l 256 -i vpd.bin
