'The Intel® Memory and Storage Tool (Intel® MAS) is a drive management tool for Intel® SSDs and Intel® Optane™ Memory devices, supported on Windows*, Linux*, and ESXi*. # echo 1 > /sys/class/nvme/nvme0/reset_controller # nvme fw-commit -s 2 -a 2 /dev/nvme0 Success committing firmware action:2 slot:2įinally reset the controller to load the new firmware # nvme fw-commit -s 2 -a 0 /dev/nvme0 Success committing firmware action:0 slot:2 # nvme fw-download -f S5Z42_fw_S5Z42105.bin /dev/nvme0 Firmware download success Refer to the NVMe specification for details on firmware commit action values.

Next, an existing image is activated ( -a 2). In the example below, firmware is first committed without activation ( -a 0). # nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 -H | grep Firmware : 0ğirmware Slot 1 Read/Writeĭownload and commit firmware to specified slot. # nvme fw-log /dev/nvme0 Firmware Log for device:nvme0 To display available slots and check whether Slot 1 is read only: See Solid state drive/Memory cell clearing#NVMe drive.įirmware can be managed using nvme-cli. and the official wiki entry for more information, and see this article for contextual information about the output.

The smartd daemon tracks health ( -H), error count ( -l error) and temperature ( -W DIFF,INFO,CRIT).Ability to fetch any nvme log ( smartctl -l nvmelog,N,SIZE).SMART overall-health self-assessment test result and warnings ( smartctl -H).Controller and namespace capabilities ( smartctl -c).Basic information about controller name, firmware, capacity ( smartctl -i).Note: smartmontools official wiki reports this support as experimental.Ĭurrently implemented features (as taken from the wiki):
