+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+For the NVMe device given, sends the Toshiba internal device log request and either saves the result to a file or dumps the content to stdout\&.
+.sp
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex: /dev/nvme0n1)\&.
+.sp
+The log is associated with the controller rather than any namespaces\&.
+.sp
+Two logs exist, the current log and the previous log\&.
+.sp
+This will only work on Toshiba devices supporting this feature\&.
+.sp
+Note: The logs are quite large \- typically 100\(cqs of MB\&. This command can take several minutes to complete\&. A progress runner is included when data is written to file and a page count is included in the stdout dump\&.
