DESCRIPTION
The Verify command verifies the integrity of the stored information by reading data and metadata.
OPTIONS
-n <nsid>, --namespace-id=<nsid>
Namespace ID use in the command.
-s <slba>, --start-block=<slba>
Start block address.
-c <nlb>, --block-count=<nlb>
Number of logical blocks to Verify.
-l, --limited-retry
Sets the limited retry flag.
-f, --force-unit-access
Set the force-unit access flag.
-p <prinfo>, --prinfo=<prinfo>
Protection Information field definition.
Bit | Description |
3 | PRACT: Protection Information Action. When set to 1, PI is stripped/inserted on read/write when the block format’s metadata size is 8. When set to 0, metadata is passes. |
2:0 | PRCHK: Protection Information Check: |
2 | Set to 1 enables checking the guard tag |
1 | Set to 1 enables checking the application tag |
0 | Set to 1 enables checking the reference tag |
-r <reftag>, --ref-tag=<reftag>
Optional reftag when used with protection
information.
-m <appmask>, --app-tag-mask=<appmask>
Optional application tag mask when used with protection
information.
-a <apptag>, --app-tag=<apptag>
Optional application tag when used with protection
information.
-S <storage-tag>, --storage-tag=<storage-tag>
Variable Sized Expected Logical Block Storage
Tag(ELBST).
-C, --storage-tag-check
This flag enables Storage Tag field checking as part of
Verify operation.
-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.
-t <timeout>, --timeout=<timeout>
