GZBD-VIEWER(8)

NAME
gzbd-viewer - zoned block devices zone state graphical interface

SYNOPSIS
gzbd-viewer [options] device

DESCRIPTION
gzbd-viewer is used to dynamically display the state of zones of a zoned block device. Each zone is displayed as a box representing the sector range of the zone. A zone box is filled with different colors based on the zone type and on the use of sectors within the zone. The condition of zones is indicated by highlighting a zone box border with different colors. Zone type and usage color codes
Magenta | Conventional zones
Red | Written sectors of a sequential zone
Green | Unwritten and usable sectors of a sequential zone
Rosy brown | Unusable sectors of a sequential zone
Zone condition color codes
Light blue | Explicitly opened zones
Dark blue | Implicitly opened zones
Dark orange | Closed zones
Grey | Offline zones

The device argument must be the pathname of the target zoned block device.

By default, gzbd-viewer will display at most 100 zones using a 10 x 10 grid. This default display size can be changed using options as explained below.
