                        [--nsid=<nsid> | -n <nsid>] [--num=<num> | -N <num>]
                        [--types=<type-list,> | -t <type-list,>]

## DESCRIPTION

Get and set lba range type feature.

The \<device\> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1). If the character device is given, the '--nsid' option is mandatory, otherwise it will use the ns-id of the namespace for the block device you opened. For block devices, the ns-id used can be overridden with the same option.

On success it returns 0, error code otherwise.

## OPTIONS

- \-n \<nsid\>, --nsid=\<nsid\>

  Sends the command with the requested nsid. This is required for the character devices, or overrides the block nsid if given. The broadcast value 0xffffffff can also be given as *all* or *-1*.

- \-N \<num\>, --num=\<num\>

  zeroes based LBA ranges number.

- \-t \<type-list,\>, --types=\<type-list,\>

  LBA range type list.

- \-l \<type-list,\>, --lbaros=\<lbaro-list,\>

  LBA range overwriteable list.

- \--hlbars=\<hlbar-list,\>

  hide LBA range list.

- \-s \<slba-list,\>, --slbas=\<slba-list,\>

  starting LBA list.

- \-b \<nlb-list,\>, --nlbs=\<nlb-list,\>

  zeroes based logical blocks number list.

- \-g \<guid-list,\>, --guids=\<guid-list,\>

  unique identifier list. Only supported with \_\_int128 available.

- \-S \<select\>, --sel=\<select\>

  Select (SEL): This field specifies which value of the attributes to return in the provided data:

  | | | |
  | --- | --- | --- |
  | Select | Name | Description |
  | 0 | current | Current |
  | 1 | default | Default |
  | 2 | saved | Saved |
  | 3 | supported | Supported capabilities |

- \--save

  Save the attribute so that it persists through all power states and resets.

## GLOBAL OPTIONS

The following options are defined at the top-level nvme command and are available to this subcommand:

- \--dry-run

  Print the command that would be executed, but do not actually execute it.

- \--no-ioctl-probing

  Disable probing for 64-bit IOCTL support.

- \--no-retries

  Disable retry logic on transient errors.

- \-o \<fmt\>, --output-format=\<fmt\>

  Set the reporting format to *normal*, *tabular, 'json*, or *binary*. Only one output format may be used at a time.

- \--output-format-version=\<version\>

  Select the output format version. Version *1* uses the original field naming, while version *2* (default) provides more consistent and script-friendly field names. Other versions are rejected.

- \--quiet

  Suppress informational messages. Errors are still reported, and --quiet cancels any --verbose for the library log level.

- \--set-options=\<key=value\>\[,\<key=value\>...\]

  Set libnvme library options for this invocation. Supported keys are *force-4k*, *mi-probe-enabled*, *test-base-dir* and *test-sysfs-dir*.

- \--timeout=\<ms\>

  Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds. *infinite* or *-1* waits without a time limit (0xffffffff).

- \-v, --verbose

  Increase the level of detail in the output. May be specified multiple times to further increase verbosity.

These options can also be set as machine-wide defaults in [nvme-cli.conf(5)](/nvme-cli.conf/5.md). A command-line flag always overrides the file.

## EXAMPLES

• Has the program issue a feat lba-range-type to get

```
# nvme feat lba-range-type /dev/nvme0 -n 1
```

• Has the program issue a ocp feat lba-range-type with LBA ranges to set

```
# nvme feat lba-range-type /dev/nvme0n1 --num=1 -t 0,1 -l 0,1 -h 1,0 -b 7,7 -s 0,4096 -g 1234,5678
```
