NVME-EXCLUSION-LIS(1)             NVMe Manual            NVME-EXCLUSION-LIS(1)

NAME
       nvme-exclusion-list - List NVMe-oF exclusion lists or their entries

SYNOPSIS
       nvme [<global-options>] exclusion list [--name=<NAME> | -N <NAME>]

DESCRIPTION
       Without --name, print every exclusion list and its entries: the main
       hand-edited /etc/nvme/exclusions.conf first, shown as (default), then
       each named list under /etc/nvme/exclusions.conf.d/. With --name, print
       the entries of that one list.

       An entry that can never match is marked # invalid: never matches. An
       entry is invalid when it uses an unknown key, a token without =, an
       empty value, or a hostname where the transport requires a numeric
       address. Add --verbose to log the reason for each one.

       This command is read-only and does not require root.

OPTIONS
       -N <NAME>, --name=<NAME>
           List the entries in the named exclusion list. Omit to list all
           exclusion lists instead.

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.

       --timeout=<ms>
           Set the timeout for the command in milliseconds.

       -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). A command-line flag always overrides the file.

EXAMPLES
       o   Show every exclusion list and its entries:

               # nvme exclusion list

       o   Show the entries in the user list:

               # nvme exclusion list --name user
