NAME

nvme-list − List all recognized NVMe devices

SYNOPSIS

nvme list [−−output−format=<fmt> | −o <fmt>] [−−verbose | −v]

DESCRIPTION

Scan the sysfs tree for NVM Express devices and return the /dev node for those devices as well as some pertinent information about them. Namespace usage printed in powers of 1,000 with SI prefixes. (e.g., 1.02 TB)

OPTIONS

−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 in the output, showing nvme subsystems, controllers and namespaces separately and how they’re related to each other.

ENVIRONMENT

PCI_IDS_PATH − Full path of pci.ids file in case nvme could not find it in common locations.
