NVME-GEN-TLS-KEY(1)

NAME
nvme-gen-tls-key - Generate a NVMe TLS PSK (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS

nvme [<global-options>] gen-tls-key [--keyring=<name> | -k <name>]
                        [--keytype=<type> | -t <type>]
                        [--hostnqn=<nqn> | -n <nqn>]
                        [--subsysnqn=<nqn> | -c <nqn>]
                        [--hmac=<hmac-id>]
                        [--identity=<id-vers> | -I <id-vers>]
                        [--secret=<secret> | -s <secret>]
                        [--insert | -i]
                        [--compat | -C]
                        [--keyfile=<keyfile> | -f <keyfile>]

DESCRIPTION

Deprecated alias for linknvme-keys-gen-tls[1], kept for scripts written against nvme-cli versions older than 3.0. Options and behavior are identical, with one exception: the short form of --hmac changed from -h to -m when key generation moved into the keys plugin, because -h now collides with the global --help flag. Scripts using the short -h <hmac-id> form must switch to -m <hmac-id> or --hmac=<hmac-id>; all other options, including the long form --hmac=, continue to work unchanged through this alias.

New scripts should use nvme keys gen-tls instead. This alias prints a deprecation warning on stderr and may be removed in a future release.

See linknvme-keys-gen-tls[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.
