[--ncap=<ncap> | -c <ncap>]
[--flbas=<flbas> | -f <flbas>]
[--dps=<dps> | -d <dps>]
[--nmic=<nmic> | -m <nmic>]
[--anagrp-id=<anagrpid> | -a <anagrpid>]
[--nvmset-id=<nvmsetid> | -i <nvmsetid>]
[--csi=<command_set_identifier> | -y <command_set_identifier>]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
For the NVMe device given, sends a namespace management command to create
the namespace with the requested settings. On success, the namespace
identifier assigned by the controller is returned.
The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character

OPTIONS
-------
-s::
--nsze::
The namespace size.
-c::
--ncap::
The namespace capacity.
-f::
--flbas::
The namespace formatted logical block size setting.
Conflicts with --block-size argument.
-d::
--dps::
The data protection settings.
-m::
--nmic::
Namespace multipath and sharing capabilities.
-a::
--anagrp-id::
ANA Gorup Identifier. If this value is 0h specifies
that the controller determines the value to use
-i <nvmsetid>::
--nvmset-id=<nvmsetid>::
This field specifies the identifier of the NVM Set.
-y <command_set_identifier>::
--csi=<command_set_identifier>::
This field specifies the identifier of command set.
if not issued, NVM Command Set will be selected.
-b::
