💖 ZONED-IDFY-NS(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the xNVMe zone — literally. this is the manual page for zoned-idfy-ns, aka the Zoned Command Set specific identify-namespace tool. it does exactly what it says on the tin, no cap. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

zoned-idfy-ns — Zoned Command Set specific identify-namespace 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

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

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one required thing, a pile of optional things, slay. 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Zoned Command Set specific identify-namespace.

yes, she's a bit of a one-liner in the description department, but that's because the real tea is in the options. it's giving "quiet main character". 👑

💜 REQUIRED 💜

okay so you genuinely cannot skip this one, it's not optional, it's the whole point:

  • <uri> — Device URI, like for real, this is the address of the thing you're talking to. examples they gave us: '/dev/nvme0n1', '0000:01:00.1', '10.9.8.1.8888', '\.PhysicalDrive1'. pick your fighter. 🌈

🫶 OPTIONAL 🫶

these are the little extras, the accessories to the outfit, the [<args>] in the synopsis. every single one of them, in order, coming right up:

  • [ --subnqn STRING ] — Subsystem NQN of the NVMe over Fabrics endpoint. the example they give is 'nqn.2022-06.io.xnvme:ctrlnode1'. yes it looks like a wifi password, no you cannot change it. 💀
  • [ --hostnqn STRING ] — The host NQN to use when connecting to NVMe over Fabrics controllers. that's your name in the fabric friend group. 🎀
  • [ --be STRING ] — xNVMe backend. the options are 'linux', 'spdk', 'fbsd', 'macos', 'posix', 'windows'. choose your own adventure, choose wisely. 🔥
  • [ --dev-nsid 0xNUM ] — Namespace Identifier for Device Handle. note the 0x, it's hex, respect the hex. ⭐
  • [ --admin STRING ] — xNVMe admin. command-interface. examples: 'nvme', 'block'. she's in charge here. 👑
  • [ --mem STRING ] — xNVMe buffer/memory manager. where the buffers go to live their best life. 🧚
  • [ --direct NUM ] — Bypass layers. straight to the metal, no middlemen, highkey iconic. 💅
  • [ --help ] — Show usage / help. when in doubt, ask for help, it's free and it's healthy. 🙈
