XNVME-IDFY-NS(1)

📦 version 0.7.5, in alpine 3.24, epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ xnvme-idfy-ns ✨

okay bestie, so this is the xnvme-idfy-ns page from the xNVMe manual — it's a command-line tool and it's literally just here to identify the given Namespace 💅 (yes that's the whole NAME section, no crumbs left behind, it's giving minimalism).

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

xnvme idfy-ns <uri> [<args>]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Identify the given Namespace. That's the vibe. That's the assignment. You hand it a namespace, it goes and does the identifying thing. 🦋

🎀 REQUIRED 🎀

You genuinely cannot skip this one, it's not optional, it's not a suggestion, it's required, periodt.

  • <uri> — the Device URI, bestie. Like for example '/dev/nvme0n1', or '0000:01:00.1', or '10.9.8.1.8888', or '\.PhysicalDrive1' — pick your fighter, but you must pick one. 🙈

⭐ OPTIONAL ⭐

These are the little extras, the accessories to the outfit. Slay.

  • [ --nsid 0xNUM ] — Namespace Identifier, used for Command Construction. It takes a hex-y 0xNUM situation. 👑
  • [ --data-output FILE ] — the Path to your data output-file. Where the goods land. 📁
  • [ --subnqn STRING ] — Subsystem NQN of the NVMe over Fabrics endpoint, e.g. 'nqn.2022-06.io.xnvme:ctrlnode1'. Fabrics girlies, this one's for you. 🌈
  • [ --hostnqn STRING ] — the host NQN you want to use when connecting to NVMe over Fabrics controllers. Yes, host NQN and sub NQN, they're different, don't come for me. ✨
  • [ --be STRING ] — the xNVMe backend, e.g. 'linux', 'spdk', 'fbsd', 'macos', 'posix', 'windows'. Pick your backend like you pick a playlist. 🔥
  • [ --dev-nsid 0xNUM ] — Namespace Identifier for Device Handle. Note that this is a different nsid than the other nsid — one's for Command Construction, one's for the Device Handle. iykyk. 💜
  • [ --admin STRING ] — the xNVMe admin. command-interface, e.g. 'nvme', 'block'. 🧚
  • [ --mem STRING ] — the xNVMe buffer/memory manager. Memory management but make it cute. 🍓
  • [ --direct NUM ] — Bypass layers. Yes. It bypasses them. Take a number, NUM. 💀
  • [ --help ] — Show usage / help. Your bestie when you forget literally everything. 🫶
