# nvme-seagate-vs-smart-add-log(1) Manual Page

## NAME

nvme-seagate-vs-smart-add-log - Retrieve Seagate vendor specific extended-SMART Information

## SYNOPSIS

    nvme seagate vs-smart-add-log <device> [OPTIONS]

## DESCRIPTION

For the NVMe device given, sends the Seagate 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 0xC4 (Extended SMART log page) and page 0xCF (DRAM Supercap SMART log page)

This command will only work on Seagate devices supporting this feature. Not all commands work across all product families.

  Log number, page 0xC4 (Extended SMART log page) and page 0xCF (DRAM Supercap SMART log page)
