This contains the NVMe target admin tool "nvmetcli". It can either be used interactively by invoking it without arguments, or it can be used to save, restore or clear the current NVMe target configuration.
Please install the configshell-fb package from https://github.com/agrover/configshell-fb first.
nvmetcli can be run directly from the source directory or installed using setup.py.
nvmetcli uses the 'python-six' and 'pyparsing' packages (running nvmetcli without these packages may produce hard-to-decipher errors).
Look at Documentation/nvmetcli.txt for details.
To load the loop + explicit host version above do the following:
./nvmetcli restore loop.json
Or to load the rdma + no host authentication version do the following after you've ensured that the IP address in rdma.json fits your setup:
./nvmetcli restore rdma.json
Or to load the fc + no host authentication version do the following after you've ensured that the port traddr FC address information in fc.json fits your setup:
./nvmetcli restore fc.json
These files can also be edited directly using your favorite editor.
nvmetcli comes with a testsuite that tests itself and the kernel configfs interface for the NVMe target. To run it make sure you have nose2 and the coverage plugin for it installed and simple run 'make test'.
Please send patches and bug reports to linux-nvme@lists.infradead.org for review and acceptance.
