## DESCRIPTION

Deprecated alias for linknvme-ns-create[1], kept for scripts written against nvme-cli versions older than 3.0. Options and behavior are identical; only the top-level command name is retained.

New scripts should use nvme ns create instead. This alias prints a deprecation warning on stderr and may be removed in a future release.

See linknvme-ns-create[1] for the full option reference.

## GLOBAL OPTIONS

The following options are defined at the top-level `nvme` command and are available to this subcommand:

--dry-run

  Print the command that would be executed, but do not actually execute it.

--no-ioctl-probing

  Disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.

--no-retries

  Disable retry logic on transient errors.

-o <fmt>
--output-format=<fmt>

  Set the reporting format to normal, tabular, 'json, or binary. Only one output format may be used at a time.

--output-format-version=<version>

  Select the output format version. Version 1 uses the original field naming, while version 2 (default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names.

--timeout=<ms>

  Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds.

-v
--verbose

  Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity.

These options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in nvme-cli.conf(5). A command-line flag always overrides the file.
