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.
