NVME-ZNS-CLOSE-ZO(1) NVMe Manual NVME-ZNS-CLOSE-ZO(1)

NAME

nvme-zns-close-zone - Closes one or all zones

SYNOPSIS

nvme [<global-options>] zns close-zone <device>


                                                [--namespace-id=<NUM> | -n <NUM>]


                                                [--start-lba=<LBA> | -s <LBA>]


                                                [--select-all | -a]

DESCRIPTION

For the NVMe device given, issues the Zone Management Send command with the "Close Zone" action. This will transition the zone to the closed state.

The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1).

OPTIONS

-n <NUM>, --namespace-id=<NUM>

Use the provided namespace id for the command. If not provided, the namespace id of the block device will be used. If the command is issued to a non-block device, the parameter is required.

-s <lba>, --start-lba=<lba>

The starting LBA of the zone to close.

-a, --select-all

Select all zones for this action

GLOBAL OPTIONS

The following options are defined at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand:

--dry-run

Print the command that would be executed, but do not actually execute it.

--no-ioctl-probing

Disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.

--no-retries

Disable retry logic on transient errors.

-o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt>

Set the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. Only one output format may be used at a time.

--output-format-version=<version>

Select the output format version. Version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names.

--timeout=<ms>

Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds.

-v, --verbose

Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity.

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

EXAMPLES

•Close all zones on namespace 1: 

# nvme zns close-zone /dev/nvme0 -a -n 1
