DESCRIPTION
The Copy command is used by the host to copy data from one or more source logical block ranges to a single consecutive destination logical block range.
OPTIONS
-d <sdlba>, --sdlba=<sdlba>
64-bit addr of first destination logical block
-b <nlb-list,>, --blocks=<nlb-list,>
Comma separated list of the number of blocks in each range
-s <slbas,>, --slbs=<slbas,>
Comma separated list of the starting blocks in each range
--snsids=<snsids,>, -N <snsids,>
Comma separated list of the source namespace identifiers in each range
--sopts=<sopts,>, -O <sopts,>
Comma separated list of the source options in each range
-l, --limited-retry
Sets the limited retry flag.
-f, --force-unit-access
Set the force-unit access flag.
-p <prinfow>, --prinfow=<prinfow>
Protection Information field write definition.
-P <prinfor>, --prinfor=<prinfor>
Protection Information field read definition.
-r <reftag>, --ref-tag=<reftag>
initial lba reference tag.
-R <reftag,>, --expected-ref-tags=<reftag,>
expected lba reference tags (comma-separated list).
-a <apptag>, --app-tag=<apptag>
lba app tag
-A <apptag,>, --expected-app-tags=<apptag,>
expected lba app tags (comma-separated list)
-m <appmask>, --app-mask=<appmask>
lba tag mask
-M <appmask,>, --expected-app-masks=<appmask,>
expected lba tag masks (comma-separated list)
-T <type>, --dir-type=<type>
Optional directive type. The nvme-cli only enforces the value be in the defined range for the directive type, though the NVMe specification (1.3a) defines only one directive, 01h, for write stream identifiers.
-S <spec>, --dir-spec=<spec>
Optional field for directive specifics. When used with write streams, this value is defined to be the write stream identifier. The nvme-cli will not validate the stream requested is within the controller’s capabilities.
-F <entry-format>, --format=<entry-format>
source range entry format
-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.
