.SH "NAME"
nvme-device-self-test \- Perform the necessary tests to observe the performance and the parameters
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp

\fInvme device\-self\-test\fR <device> [\-\-namespace\-id=<NUM> | \-n <NUM>]
                        [\-\-self\-test\-code=<NUM> | \-s <NUM>]
.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Initiates the required test based on the user input\&.
.sp
The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1)\&.
.sp
On success, the corresponding test is initiated\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\-n <NUM>, \-\-namespace\-id=<NUM>
.RS 4
Indicate the namespace in which the device self\-test has to becarried out
.RE
.PP
\-s <NUM>, \-\-self\-test\-code=<NUM>
.RS 4
This field specifies the action taken by the device self\-test command : 1h: Start a short device self\-test operation 2h: Start a extended device self\-test operation eh: Start a vendor specific device self\-test operation fh: abort the device self\-test operation
