SYNOPSIS

nvme id−iocs <device> [−−controller−id=<cntid> | −c <cntid>]
[−o <fmt> | −−output−format=<fmt>]

DESCRIPTION

For the NVMe device given, send an identify command and return the Identify I/O Command Set data structure.

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

−c <cntid>, −−controller−id=<cntid>

Retrieve the identify I/O Command set data structure for the given cntid. If this value is not given, cntid will be 0xffff.

−H, −−human−readable

This option will parse and format many of the bit fields into human−readable formats.

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

EXAMPLES

• Have the program interpret the returned buffer and display the known fields in a human readable format:

# nvme id−iocs /dev/nvme0

• show the fields in human readable format

# nvme id−iocs /dev/nvme0 −H
