πŸ’– NVME-NETAPP-ONTAPD(1) πŸ’–

okay so welcome to the NVME-NETAPP-ONTAPD(1) page, bestie β€” it lives in the NVMe Manual and it's literally all about showing you what ONTAP devices are chilling on your host. pull up a chair, this one's short and sweet fr fr 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme-netapp-ontapdevices β€” display information about ONTAP devices πŸ’…

πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

nvme [<global-options>] netapp ontapdevices

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the vibe: this command displays information about ONTAP devices on the host. that's it, that's the whole main character moment 🌟

and how does it know which devices are the ONTAP ones? it identifies them using the Identify Controller data. no cap, that's the whole trick πŸ‘‘

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

🌈 GLOBAL OPTIONS 🌈

these options are defined up at the top-level nvme command, so they're available to this subcommand too β€” they're giving "borrowed from the group chat" energy 😌

  • --dry-run β€” prints the command that would be executed, but doesn't actually execute it. it's the "let me just draft the text and not send it" of flags πŸ™ˆ
  • --no-ioctl-probing β€” disables probing for 64-bit IOCTL support. bye probe ✌️
  • --no-retries β€” disables retry logic on transient errors. one shot, one opportunity πŸ’€
  • -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> β€” sets the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. only one output format may be used at a time, so don't get greedy πŸ“
  • --output-format-version=<version> β€” selects the output format version. version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (the default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names. any other versions get rejected, sorry babe 🚫
  • --quiet β€” suppresses informational messages. errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level. loud era over 🀫
  • --set-options=<key=value>[,<key=value>...] β€” sets libnvme library options for this invocation. the supported keys are force-4k, mi-probe-enabled, test-base-dir and test-sysfs-dir 🧚
  • --timeout=<ms> β€” sets the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). patience is a virtue ig ⏳
  • -v, --verbose β€” increases the level of detail in the output. you can specify it multiple times to further increase verbosity β€” stack it like your iced coffee orders β˜•βœ¨
bestie heads up: these options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). but a command-line flag always overrides the file β€” CLI stays on top, periodt πŸ‘‘
