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

NAME

nvme-zns-reset-zone - Resets one or all zones

SYNOPSIS

nvme [<global-options>] zns reset-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 "Reset Zone" action. This will transition the zone to the empty state, setting the write pointer for each zone back to the beginning on success.

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 reset.

-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

•Reset the first zone on namespace 1: 

# nvme zns reset-zone /dev/nvme0 -n 1 -s 0
