NAME
nvme-create-ns - Send NVMe Namespace management command to create namespace, returns results.
SYNOPSIS
nvme create-ns <device> [--nsze=<nsze> | -s <nsze>] [--ncap=<ncap> | -c <ncap>] [--flbas=<flbas> | -f <flbas>] [--dps=<dps> | -d <dps>] [--nmic=<nmic> | -m <nmic>] [--anagrp-id=<anagrpid> | -a <anagrpid>] [--nvmset-id=<nvmsetid> | -i <nvmsetid>] [--csi=<command_set_identifier> | -y <command_set_identifier>] [--block-size=<block-size> | -b <block-size>] [--timeout=<timeout> | -t <timeout>] DESCRIPTION For the NVMe device given, sends a namespace management command to create the namespace with the requested settings. On success, the namespace identifier assigned by the controller is returned. The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). OPTIONS -s, --nsze The namespace size. -c, --ncap The namespace capacity. -f, --flbas The namespace formatted logical block size setting. Conflicts with --block-size argument. -d, --dps The data protection settings. -m, --nmic Namespace multipath and sharing capabilities. -a, --anagrp-id ANA Gorup Identifier. If this value is 0h specifies that the controller determines the value to use -i <nvmsetid>, --nvmset-id=<nvmsetid> This field specifies the identifier of the NVM Set. -y <command_set_identifier>, --csi=<command_set_identifier> This field specifies the identifier of command set. if not issued, NVM Command Set will be selected. -b, --block-size Target block size the new namespace should be formatted as. Potential FLBAS values will be values will be scanned and the lowest numbered will be selected for the create-ns operation. Conflicts with --flbas argument.
