NAME

       nvme-error-log - Send NVME Error log page request, return result and log

SYNOPSIS

       nvme error-log <device>  [--log-entries=<entries> | -e <entries>]
                                [--raw-binary | -b]
                                [--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>]

DESCRIPTION

       Retrieves NVMe Error log page from an NVMe device and provides the returned structure.

       The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a
       namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1).

       On success, the returned error log structure may be returned in one of several ways depending on the
       option flags; the structure may parsed by the program and printed in a readable format or the raw buffer
       may be printed to stdout for another program to parse.

OPTIONS

       -e <entries>, --log-entries=<entries>
           Specifies how many log entries the program should request from the device. This must be at least one,
           and shouldn’t exceed the device’s capabilities. Defaults to 64 log entries.

       -b, --raw-binary
           Print the raw error log buffer to stdout.

       -o <format>, --output-format=<format>
           Set the reporting format to normal, json, or binary. Only one output format can be used at a time.

EXAMPLES

       •   Get the error log and print it in a human readable format:

               # nvme error-log /dev/nvme0

       •   Print the raw output to a file:

               # nvme error-log /dev/nvme0 --raw-binary > error_log.raw

           It is probably a bad idea to not redirect stdout when using this mode.
