Unfortunately you can't do that if you log to the SAME volume you are 
suspending - i.e. you run your command from your root volume
which is also suspended.

We could likely 'buffer' the output while in suspend mode,
and throw out the output later - but as this is seen as 'debug' help it's 
assume user takes care and user place for logging which doesn't block.

So if you want to see logs - use something tmpfs location for it.
