nvme-effects-log(1)
===================

NAME
----
nvme-effects-log - Send NVMe Command Effects log page request, returns result and log

SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'nvme effects-log' <device> [--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>]
                            [--human-readable | -H]
                            [--raw-binary | -b]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
Retrieves the NVMe Command Effects log page from an NVMe device and provides
the returned structure.

The <device> parameter is mandatory and should be the NVMe character
device (ex: /dev/nvme0).

On success, the returned command effects log structure will be printed
for each command that is supported.

OPTIONS
-------

-o <format>::
--output-format=<format>::
	This option will set the reporting format to normal, json, or binary.
	Only one output format can be used at a time.

-H::
--human-readable::
	This option will parse and format many of the bit fields into a
	human-readable format.

-b::
--raw-binary::
	This option will print the raw buffer to stdout. Structure is not
	parsed by program.  This overrides the human-readable option.

EXAMPLES
--------
* Print the effects log page in a human readable format:
+
------------
# nvme effects-log /dev/nvme0
------------
+

* Have the program return the raw structure in binary:
+
------------
# nvme effects-log /dev/nvme0 --raw-binary > effects_log.raw
# nvme effects-log /dev/nvme0 -b > effects_log.raw
------------
