[PATCH nvme-cli v2 1/2] nvme-cli: Add nvme hostnqn generation option

Sagi Grimberg sagi at grimberg.me
Thu Nov 17 04:54:47 PST 2016


Add option to generate a NVMe qualified name of a given host
(in the form of: nqn.2014-08.org.nvmexpress:NVMf:uuid:<some_uuid>).
This hostnqn will be used for fabrics discovery and connect functions.
