💅 NVME-ANA-LOG(1) — the deprecated ANA log page bestie 💅

okay so welcome to the NVMe Manual page for NVME-ANA-LOG(1), bestie. Buckle up, because this one is literally a nostalgia tour with a deprecation warning attached. 🫶

💖 NAME 💖

nvme-ana-log — Send NVMe ANA log page request, returns result and log (deprecated). yes, she’s iconic, but she’s also on notice. 😭

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

nvme [<global-options>] ana-log <device> [--groups | -g]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here’s the tea: this is a deprecated alias for nvme-log-ana(1). It’s kept around for scripts written against nvme-cli versions older than 3.0. Options and behavior are identical — only the top-level command name is retained. periodt. 💅

New scripts should use nvme log ana instead. This alias prints a deprecation warning on stderr and may be removed in a future release. not me being dramatic, that’s just what the docs say. 🚨

⚠️ Deprecated alert: if you’re writing something fresh, don’t start a new situationship with this alias. Use nvme log ana and move on. 💀

See nvme-log-ana(1) for the full option reference. iykyk. 👑

🌈 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. all the planning, none of the commitment. ✨
  • --no-ioctl-probing — Disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support. no probing, no detective work. 🕵️
  • --no-retries — Disable retry logic on transient errors. one shot, one opportunity. 😤
  • -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. choose your fighter. 🎀
  • --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. Other versions are rejected. version 2 is the main character here. 👑
  • --quiet — Suppress informational messages. Errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level. shhh, she’s being mysterious. 🤫
  • --set-options=<key=value>[,<key=value>...] — Set libnvme library options for this invocation. Supported keys are force-4k, mi-probe-enabled, test-base-dir and test-sysfs-dir. very build-your-own-adventure. 🧚
  • --timeout=<ms> — Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). no clock-watching, no cap. ⏳
  • -v, --verbose — Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. say it again for the people in the back. 🔥

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