+nvme-self-test-log(1)
+=====================
+
+NAME
+----
+nvme-self-test-log - Retrieve the log information initiated by device-self-test and display it
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'nvme self-test'-log <device> [--log-entries=<entries> | -e <entries>]
+			[--output-format=<fmt> | -o <fmt>] [--verbose | -v]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Retrieves the log pages from an NVMe device corresponding to the 
+requested self-test by the user and provides 20-most recent result 
+returned structure.
+
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character
+device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1).
+
+On success, the returned log structure may be returned in one of
+several ways depending on the option flags; the structure may parsed by
+the program and printed in a readable format or the raw buffer or the 
+json format.
+
+By default the log is printed out in the normal readable format.
+
+OPTION
+-------
+-e <entries>::
+--log-entries=<entries>::
+	Specifies how many DST log entries the program should request from
+	the device. This must be at least one, and shouldn't exceed the
+	20 entries. Defaults to 20 DST log entries.
+
+-o <fmt>::
+--output-format=<fmt>::
+	Set the reporting format to 'normal', 'json' or 'binary'. Only one
+	output format can be used at a time.
+
+-v::
+--verbose::
+	Increase the information detail in the output.
