NVME-CONFIG-VALIDA(1)

NAME
nvme-config-validate - Validate an NVMe-oF INI connection configuration file

SYNOPSIS

nvme config validate
                        [--config=<file> | -J <file>]
                        [--verbose | -v]

DESCRIPTION

Parses and validates the NVMe-oF INI connection configuration file used by nvme connect-all and nvme discover. The INI format is documented at https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-cli/blob/master/libnvme/design/CONFIG.md

By default, the file at /etc/nvme/nvme-fabrics.conf is validated. Use --config to validate a file at a different path instead, for example before installing it as the system configuration.

On success, <file>: OK is printed and the command exits with status 0. If the file is malformed, <file>: invalid configuration is printed along with diagnostic details, and the command exits with a non-zero status. A missing file is also reported as an error, not treated as an empty, valid configuration.

OPTIONS

-J <file>, --config=<file>
    Validate this INI file instead of the default /etc/nvme/nvme-fabrics.conf.

-v, --verbose
    Increase the level of detail in the output.

EXAMPLES

    • Validate the system’s configuration:

        # nvme config validate

    • Validate a configuration file before installing it as the system configuration:

        $ nvme config validate --config /tmp/nvme-fabrics.conf
