💅 nvme-log-rotational-media-info 💅

okay bestie, welcome to NVME-LOG-ROTATIONA(1) in the NVMe Manual — this is the page for nvme-log-rotational-media-info, and it's literally here to help you retrieve the Rotational Media Information Log and show it. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

nvme-log-rotational-media-info — Retrieve Rotational Media Information Log, show it. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

nvme [<global-options>] log rotational-media-info <device>
                        [--endg-id=<endgid> | -e <endgid>]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so this command retrieves the Rotational Media Information Log and shows it to you. That's the main character energy right there. ✨

<device> is mandatory, bestie — it has to be a NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0).

On success it returns 0, and an error code otherwise.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• -e <endgid>, --endg-id=<endgid> — This field specifies the identifier of the endurance group. Slay. 🫶

🫶 GLOBAL OPTIONS 🫶

These options are defined at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand, iykyk:

• --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. No mixing, bestie. 💅
• --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. 🚫
• --quiet — Suppress informational messages. Errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level.
• --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.
• --timeout=<ms> — Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). ⏳
• -v, --verbose — Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. Talkative icon behavior. 🗣️

These options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). A command-line flag always overrides the file. Periodt.
