NAME

   nvme-sanitize-log - Send NVMe sanitize-log Command, return result

SYNOPSIS

   nvme sanitize-log <device> [--rae | -r] [--human-readable | -H]
                           [--raw-binary | -b]
                           [--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>] [--verbose | -v]

DESCRIPTION

   Retrieves the NVMe Sanitize log page from an NVMe device and provides the status of sanitize command.

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

   Expected status and description :-

    0x0001       The most recent sanitize operation completed successfully.      
   
                                                                                 
    0x0002       A sanitize operation is currently in progress.                  
   
                                                                                 
    0x0003       The most recent sanitize operation failed.                      
   
                                                                                 
    0x0100       Global Data Erased bit If set to 1 then non-volatile storage in 
                 the NVM subsystem has not been written to: a) since being       
                 manufactured and the NVM subsystem has never been sanitized; or 
                 b) since the most recent successful sanitize operation. If      
                 cleared to 0, then non-volatile storage in the NVM subsystem    
                 has been written to: a) since being manufactured and the NVM    
                 subsystem has never been sanitized; or b) since the most recent 
                 successful sanitize operation of the NVM subsystem.             
   

   Sanitize Progress - percentage complete

   On success it returns 0, error code otherwise.

OPTIONS

   -r, --rae
       Retain an Asynchronous Event.

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

   -b, --raw-binary
       Print the raw buffer to stdout. Structure is not parsed by program. This overrides the vendor specific and human readable options.

   -o <fmt>, --output-format=<fmt>
       Set the reporting format to normal, json or binary. Only one output format can be used at a time.

   -v, --verbose
       Increase the information detail in the output.

EXAMPLES

      Has the program issue Sanitize-log Command :

           # nvme sanitize-log /dev/nvme0
