💅 NVME-OCP-SET-DSSD(1) — the NVMe Manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so you found the nvme-ocp-set-dssd-async-event-config page and you're like "what is this even" — don't worry, I got you. This is section 1 of the NVMe Manual, and yes it's a whole vibe. Let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme-ocp-set-dssd-async-event-config — literally just sets the DSSD asynchronous event configuration. that's the whole job. no cap 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

nvme [<global-options>] ocp set-dssd-async-event-config <device>
                        [--enable-panic-notices | -e]
                        [--save | -s]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Set DSSD asynchronous event configuration. iconic, I know 💅

The <device> parameter is mandatory — like, you cannot skip it, bestie — and it may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0) or a block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). pick your fighter 🥊

⚠️ Heads up: this will only work on OCP compliant devices supporting this feature. Results for any other device are undefined — so don't come crying to me if you YOLO it on some rando device, okay? 😭

On success it returns 0, error code otherwise. slay. ✅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -e, --enable-panic-notices — set enable panic notices [0]. drama queen option fr fr 🔥
  • -s, --save — save the attribute so that it persists through all power states and resets. it stays put, unlike my motivation 🫠

💜 GLOBAL OPTIONS 💜

these ones live at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand too — shared custody, we love to see it 🧚

  • --dry-run — print the command that would be executed, but do not actually execute it. all the aesthetics, none of the consequences ✨
  • --no-ioctl-probing — disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.
  • --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. pick one, you can't have all four 👑
  • --output-format-version=<version> — select the output format version. Version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (the default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names. Other versions are rejected. so don't try it 🙈
  • --quiet — suppress informational messages. errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level. shhh, main character is thinking 🤫
  • --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. mix and match, it's giving build-your-own-adventure 🌈
  • --timeout=<ms> — set the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff). no rush bestie ⏳
  • -v, --verbose — increase the level of detail in the output. may be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity. say it again, louder 📢
💡 these options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). a command-line flag always overrides the file — CLI ate and left no crumbs 🍓

🌟 EXAMPLES 🌟

  • has the program issue a set-dssd-async-event-config to enable panic notices, persisting through power states.
# nvme ocp set-dssd-async-event-config /dev/nvme0 -e -s
