SYNOPSIS

nvme solidigm vs-internal-log <device> [--log-type=<type> | -t <type>]
                                          [--output-dir=<dir> | -d <dir>]
                                          [--verbose | -v]

DESCRIPTION

For the NVMe device given, retrieves the Solidigm vendor-specific internal debug log binaries and saves them to the specified output directory.

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

-t <type>
--log-type=<type>

Specify the type of log to retrieve. Valid options are ALL, CIT, HIT, NLOG, ASSERT, EVENT, and EXTENDED. Defaults to ALL. The EXTENDED option generates logs that may take longer time or affect drive performance, but provides more comprehensive debugging information.

-d <dir>
--output-dir=<dir>

Specify the output directory for the log files. Defaults to the current working directory.

-v
--verbose

Enable verbose output for additional information during the log retrieval process.

EXAMPLES

  • Retrieve all internal logs and save them to the current directory: 

    # nvme solidigm vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0

  • Retrieve a specific log type and save it to a custom directory: 

    # nvme solidigm vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -t NLOG -d /tmp/logs

  • Retrieve logs with verbose output: 

    # nvme solidigm vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -v

  • Retrieve extended logs: 

    # nvme solidigm vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -t EXTENDED
