## NAME

nvme-solidigm-id-ctrl - Send NVMe Identify Controller, return result and structure

## SYNOPSIS

    nvme [<global-options>] solidigm id-ctrl <device>
                            [--raw-binary | -b]
                            [--vendor-specific | -V]
                            [--human-readable | -H]

## DESCRIPTION

This command is a Solidigm-specific extension of the NVMe Identify Controller command. It sends an NVMe Identify Controller command to the specified device and provides the result and 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).

## OPTIONS

-H
--human-readable

  Display values in a human-readable format where possible. (deprecated, use --verbose)

## 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.

## EXAMPLES

- Send the Identify Controller command and interpret the output:

      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0

- Print the raw output to stdout:

      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 --raw-binary

- Print the output in JSON format:

      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 -o json

- Display the vendor-specific fields:

      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 --vendor-specific
      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 -V

- Use human-readable output:

      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 --human-readable
      # nvme solidigm id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 -H
