+================================
+
+NAME
+----
+nvme-toshiba-vs-smart-add-log - Retrieve a Toshiba device's vendor specific extended SMART log page contents and either save to file or dump the contents.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'nvme toshiba vs-smart-add-log ' <device> [--log=<NUM>, -l <NUM>]
+ [--namespace-id=<NUM>, -n <NUM>]
+ [--output-file=<FILE>, -o <FILE>]
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+For the NVMe device given, sends the Toshiba vendor log
+request and either saves the result to a file or dumps the content to stdout.
+
+The <device> parameter is mandatory and may be either the NVMe
+character device (ex: /dev/nvme0), or a namespace block device (ex:
+/dev/nvme0n1).
+
+The log contents may be associated with the controller, in which case the namespace parameter is ignored.
+
+Two logs exist, page 0xC0 (log page directory) and page 0xCA (vendor log page)
+
+This will only work on Toshiba devices supporting this feature.
