EBSNVME-ID(8) System Manager's Manual EBSNVME-ID(8) NAME ebsnvme-id -- NVMe disk identification tool for Amazon EC2 SYNOPSYS ebsnvme-id [-b] [-m] [-s] [-u] [-v] <device> DESCRIPTION The Amazon EC2 "Nitro" platform exposes disks to virtual machines via the NVM Express protocol. There are two types of disks so exposed: Elastic Block Store disks, which persist and can be detached and reat- tached to different virtual machines, and Instance Store disks (also known as "Ephemeral" disks), which exist only while the virual machine is running. Amazon Linux provides a tool "ebsnvme-id" for identifying the attached Elastic Block Store disks; this ebsnvme-id is a re-implementation which also exposes some information about Instance Store disks. The options are as follows: -b Print the "Linux device name" associated with the specified Elastic Block Store disk. -m Print the Model Number of the disk; this is either "Amazon Elastic Block Store" or "Amazon EC2 NVMe Instance Storage" de- pending on the type of disk. -s Print the Serial Number of the disk. -u Identical to the -b option. -v Print "Volume ID:" followed by the volume ID of the Elastic Block Store disk. If no options are specified, ebsnvme-id operates as if invoked with the options -v -b. If multiple option are specified, output is printed for each option, in the order -v [-b | -u] -m -s. SEE ALSO nvmecontrol(8) AUTHORS ebsnvme-id was written by Colin Percival <cperciva@FreeBSD.org> based on the "ebsnvme-id" tool published by Amazon.com, Inc.
