NVME-SNDK-VS-CLOU(1)

💅 NVME-SNDK-VS-CLOU(1) — the sndk vs-cloud-log glow-up

okay bestie so this is a page from the NVMe Manual, and it's all about one very specific little command. buckle up 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

nvme-sndk-vs-cloud-log — send the NVMe sndk vs-cloud-log Vendor Unique Command and hand you back the result 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

nvme [<global-options>] sndk vs-cloud-log <device>
                        [--namespace-id=<nsid> | -n <nsid>]

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so for the NVMe device you point at, this sends a Vendor Unique sndk vs-cloud-log command and gives you the smart/health log. that's the whole vibe 💖

the <device> parameter is mandatory (no skipping it, queen) and it can be either the NVMe character device (like /dev/nvme0) or the block device (like /dev/nvme0n1).

⚠️ real talk: this only works on Sandisk devices that actually support this feature. on anything else, the results are undefined — not "probably fine", literally undefined 😭

on success it returns 0, and an error code otherwise. periodt.

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid> — sets the command's nsid value to whatever nsid you give it. defaults to 0xffffffff if you don't give one. ngl this option may not affect anything depending on the log page, since the log page may or may not be specific to a namespace 🫶 and hey, the broadcast value 0xffffffff can also be given as all or -1.

---

✨ GLOBAL OPTIONS ✨

these are defined at the top-level nvme command and they're all available to this subcommand too, iykyk 👑

• --dry-run — prints the command that would be executed, but doesn't actually execute it. it's giving window shopping 🛍️
• --no-ioctl-probing — disables probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.
• --no-retries — disables the retry logic on transient errors.
• -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt> — sets the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. only one output format at a time, bestie — pick a lane 💅
• --output-format-version=<version> — selects the output format version. version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (default) gives you more consistent and script-friendly field names. other versions are rejected, no cap.
• --quiet — suppresses informational messages. errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level 🤫
• --set-options=<key=value>[,<key=value>...] — 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> — sets the timeout for the command in milliseconds. infinite or -1 waits without a time limit (0xffffffff) ⏳
• -v, --verbose — increases the level of detail in the output. may be specified multiple times to crank the verbosity even further 🔥

these options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). a command-line flag always overrides the file — the flag is the main character here 🌟

✨ EXAMPLES ✨

• has the program issue the sndk vs-cloud-log Vendor Unique Command:

# nvme sndk vs-cloud-log /dev/nvme0

✨ NVME ✨

part of the nvme-user suite. iconic, honestly 🌈
