+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The Copy command is used by the host to copy data from one or more source
+logical block ranges to a single consecutive destination logical block range.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-d <sdlba>::
+--sdlba=<sdlba>::
+	64-bit addr of first destination logical block
+
+-b <nlb-list,>::
+--blocks=<nlb-list,>::
+	Comma separated list of the number of blocks in each range
+
+-s <slbas,>::
+--slbs=<slbas,>::
+	Comma separated list of the starting blocks in each range
+
+--snsids=<snsids,>::
+-N <snsids,>::
+	Comma separated list of the source namespace identifiers in each range
+
+--sopts=<sopts,>::
+-O <sopts,>::
+	Comma separated list of the source options in each range
+
+-l::
+--limited-retry::
+	Sets the limited retry flag.
+
+-f::
+--force-unit-access::
+	Set the force-unit access flag.
+
+-p <prinfow>::
+--prinfow=<prinfow>::
+	Protection Information field write definition.
+
+-P <prinfor>::
+--prinfor=<prinfor>::
+	Protection Information field read definition.
+
+-r <reftag>::
+--ref-tag=<reftag>::
+	initial lba reference tag.
+
+-R <reftag,>::
+--expected-ref-tags=<reftag,>::
+	expected lba reference tags (comma-separated list).
+
+-a <apptag>::
+--app-tag=<apptag>::
+	lba app tag
+
+-A <apptag,>::
+--expected-app-tags=<apptag,>::
+	expected lba app tags (comma-separated list)
+
+-m <appmask>::
+--app-mask=<appmask>::
+	lba tag mask
+
+-M <appmask,>::
+--expected-app-masks=<appmask,>::
+	expected lba tag masks (comma-separated list)
+
+-T <type>::
+--dir-type=<type>::
+	Optional directive type. The nvme-cli only enforces the value
+	be in the defined range for the directive type, though the NVMe
+	specification (1.3a) defines only one directive, 01h, for write
+	stream identifiers.
+
+-S <spec>::
+--dir-spec=<spec>::
+	Optional field for directive specifics. When used with
+	write streams, this value is defined to be the write stream
+	identifier. The nvme-cli will not validate the stream requested
+	is within the controller's capabilities.
+
+-F <entry-format>::
+--format=<entry-format>::
+	source range entry format
+
+-o <fmt>::
+--output-format=<fmt>::
+	Set the reporting format to 'normal', 'json' or 'binary'. Only one
+	output format can be used at a time.
+
+-v::
+--verbose::
+	Increase the information detail in the output.
