NAME

6       nvme-wdc-vs-internal-log - Retrieve WDC device's internal firmware log
7       and save to file.
8

SYNOPSIS

10       nvme wdc vs-internal-log <device> [--output-file=<FILE>, -o <FILE>] [--transfer-size=<SIZE>, -s <SIZE>]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       For the NVMe device given, sends the WDC Vendor Specific Internal Log
14       request and saves the result to a file.
15
16       The <device> parameter is mandatory NVMe character device (ex:
17       /dev/nvme0).
18
19       This will only work on WDC devices supporting this feature. Results for
20       any other device are undefined.
21

OPTIONS

23       -o <FILE>, --output-file=<FILE>
24           Output file; defaults to device serial number followed by
25           "internal_fw_log<date>_<time>.bin" suffix
26
27       -s <SIZE>, --transfer-size=<SIZE>
28           Transfer size; defaults to 0x10000 (65536 decimal) bytes
29

EXAMPLES

31       ·   Gets the internal firmware log from the device and saves to default
32           file in current directory (e.g.
33           STM00019F3F9_internal_fw_log_20171127_095704.bin):
34
35               # nvme wdc vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0
36
37       ·   Gets the internal firmware log from the device and saves to defined
38           file in current directory (e.g. test.bin):
39
40               # nvme wdc vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -o test.bin
41
42       ·   Gets the internal firmware log from the device and saves to defined
43           file with pathname (e.g. /tmp/test):
44
45               # nvme wdc vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -o /tmp/test
46
47       ·   Gets the internal firmware log from the device transferring the
48           data in 64k chunks and saves to default file in current directory
49           (e.g. STM00019F3F9_internal_fw_log_20171127_100754.bin):
50
51               # nvme wdc vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -s 0x10000
52
53       ·   Gets the internal firmware log from the device transferring the
54           data in 16k chunks and saves to default file in current directory
55           (e.g. STM00019F3F9_internal_fw_log_20171127_100950.bin):
56
57               # nvme wdc vs-internal-log /dev/nvme0 -s 16384
