.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Send one or more Discovery requests to a NVMe over Fabrics Discovery Controller, and create controllers for the returned discovery records\&.
.sp
If no parameters are given, then \fInvme connect\-all\fR will attempt to find a /etc/nvme/discovery\&.conf file to use to supply a list of connect\-all commands to run\&. If no /etc/nvme/discovery\&.conf file exists, the command will quit with an error\&.
.sp
Otherwise a specific Discovery Controller should be specified using the \-\-transport, \-\-traddr and if necessary the \-\-trsvcid and a Diѕcovery request will be sent to the specified Discovery Controller\&.
.sp
See the documentation for the nvme\-discover(1) command for further background\&.

\-a <traddr>, \-\-traddr=<traddr>
.RS 4
This field specifies the network address of the Discovery Controller\&. For transports using IP addressing (e\&.g\&. rdma) this should be an IP\-based address (ex\&. IPv4)\&.
.RE
.PP
\-s <trsvcid>, \-\-trsvcid=<trsvcid>
.RS 4
This field specifies the transport service id\&. For transports using IP addressing (e\&.g\&. rdma) this field is the port number\&. By default, the IP port number for the RDMA transport is 4420\&.
.RE
.PP
\-w <traddr>, \-\-host\-traddr=<traddr>
.RS 4
This field specifies the network address used on the host to connect to the Discovery Controller\&.
.RE
.PP
\-q <hostnqn>, \-\-hostnqn=<hostnqn>
.RS 4
Overrides the default Host NQN that identifies the NVMe Host\&. If this option is not specified, the default is read from /etc/nvme/hostnqn first\&. If that does not exist, the autogenerated NQN value from the NVMe Host kernel module is used next\&. The Host NQN uniquely identifies the NVMe Host, and may be used by the the Discovery Controller to control what NVMe Target resources are allocated to the NVMe Host for a connection\&.
.RE
.PP
\-I <hostid>, \-\-hostid=<hostid>
.RS 4
UUID(Universally Unique Identifier) to be discovered which should be formatted\&.
.RE
.PP
\-r <filename>, \-\-raw=<filename>
.RS 4
This field will take the output of the
\fInvme connect\-all\fR
command and dump it to a raw binary file\&. By default
\fInvme connect\-all\fR
will dump the output to stdout\&.
.RE
.PP
\-k <#>, \-\-keep\-alive\-tmo=<#>
.RS 4
Overrides the default keep alive timeout (in seconds)\&. This option will be ignored for discovery, but will be passed on to the subsequent connect call\&.
.RE
.PP
\-c <#>, \-\-reconnect\-delay=<#>
.RS 4
Overrides the default delay (in seconds) before reconnect is attempted after a connect loss\&.

\-l <#>, \-\-ctrl\-loss\-tmo=<#>
.RS 4
Overrides the default controller loss timeout period (in seconds)\&.

.RE
.PP
\-i <#>, \-\-nr\-io\-queues=<#>

.RE
.PP
\-W <#>, \-\-nr\-write\-queues=<#>
.RS 4
Adds additional queues that will be used for write I/O\&.

Overrides the default number of elements in the I/O queues created by the driver\&. This option will be ignored for discovery, but will be passed on to the subsequent connect call\&.
.RE
.PP

.RS 4
If a traddr was specified on the command line or in the configuration file, only create controllers for discovery records that match the given traddr, rather than for all entries in the discovery log page\&.
