+NAME
+----
+nvme-capacity-mgmt - Send capacity management command to configure/create/delete
+ Endurance Groups or NVM Sets, returns results.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'nvme capacity-mgmt' <device> [--operation=<operation> | -o <operation>]
+ [--element-id=<element-id> | -i <element-id>]
+ [--cap-lower=<cap-lower> | -l <cap-lower>]
+ [--cap-upper=<cap-upper> | -u <cap-upper>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+For the NVMe device given, sends a capacity management command to
+configure/create/delete the Endurance Groups or NVM Sets with the requested
+operation and element_id. On success, if the Operation is Create Endurance
+group or NVM Set, CQE CDW0 contains Created element identifier else CQE CDW0 is
+reserved.
+
+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

+-o <operation>::
+--operation=<operation>::
+ Operation to be performed by the controller

+-i <element-id>::
+--element-id=<element-id>::
+ Value specific to the value of the Operation field.
+
+-l <cap-lower>::
+--cap-lower=<cap-lower>::
+ Least significant 32 bits of the capacity in bytes of the Endurance Group or
+ NVM Set to be created
+
+-u <cap-upper>::
+--cap-upper=<cap-upper>::
+ Most significant 32 bits of the capacity in bytes of the Endurance Group or
+ NVM Set to be created
