Newby: How do I update NVME-CLI to 1.5-1 on Xenial

Asked by Terry Perkinson

Running Xenial server. I assumed I'd use apt-get, but so far have not figured out the right commands to do so. So my question is what commands do I use to update to nvme-cli 1.5 and then how do I verify the upate, i.e., show the version?

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvme-cli

Will give you the latest version of the package in the repository

Thank you for the answer. I will try those again. I did that and "nvme version" returned "1.2". However, that could be the version of NVME itself, not the CLI. We've moved our test servers to 16.04LTS so I will try again and find a way to verify the actual nvme-cli version.

Again, thank you for the reply.

Newby problem solved. The apt-get update / apt-get install *did* install NVME-CLI 1.5. I used 'sudo apt list --installed | grep nvme' to verify nvme-cli version as 1.5-1.
