NVME-ID-DOMAIN(1)

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

nvme-id-domain β€” okay bestie, this is the page from the NVMe Manual for sending an NVMe Identify Domain List command, getting the result back, and showing you that structure. ✨


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

nvme [<global-options>] id domain <device>
                        [--dom-id=<domain_id> | -d <domain_id>]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So for the NVMe device you give it, this sends an identify command and returns the domain list data structure. That's the whole vibe. πŸ’…

The <device> parameter is mandatory β€” like, you literally cannot skip it β€” and it can be either the NVMe character device (example: /dev/nvme0) or a namespace block device (example: /dev/nvme0n1). 🫢

🚨 Deprecated-alias check, bestie: the bare nvme id-domain form (without a space) still works as a deprecated alias, but it will be removed in a future major version. New scripts should use nvme id domain instead. No cap, update those scripts. 😭

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -d <domain_id>, --dom-id=<domain_id> β€” Retrieve the identify domain list data structure for the given domain id. If this value is not given, the domain id will be 0xffff. Default behavior, iconic. πŸ‘‘

🌈 GLOBAL OPTIONS 🌈

These are defined at the top-level nvme command, and they're available to this subcommand too. Global-option besties, rise. ✨

  • --dry-run β€” Print the command that would be executed, but do not actually execute it. All the look, none of the commit. πŸ’…
  • --no-ioctl-probing β€” Disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.
  • --no-retries β€” Disable retry logic on transient errors.
  • -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> β€” Set the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. Only one output format may be used at a time. Pick one, bestie, literally one. πŸŽ€
  • --output-format-version=<version> β€” 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. 🚫
  • --quiet β€” Suppress informational messages. Errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level.
  • --set-options=<key=value>[,<key=value>...] β€” Set libnvme library options for this invocation. Supported keys are force-4k, mi-probe-enabled, test-base-dir and test-sysfs-dir.
  • --timeout=<ms> β€” Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). Patient queen behavior. ⏳
  • -v, --verbose β€” Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. Spill the tea, command. πŸ“

These options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). A command-line flag always overrides the file. File says one thing, flag says another, flag wins. Periodt. πŸ’–
