A method includes memory fencing in memory components of a memory sub-system and receiving a first number of commands and a second number of command for execution on a memory sub-system, receiving a memory fencing command associated with the first number of commands and the second number of commands, and executing at least one of the first number of commands before executing at least one of the second number of commands in response to receiving the memory fencing command. The method further includes executing the at least one of the first number of commands by moving data from a first location in the memory subsystem to a second location in the memory sub-system and executing the at least one of the second number of commands by reading data from the second location in the memory sub-system and sending the data to a host system.
