The letters in the value field can be in any order. Each letter turns on a
different logging mode. Each letter's actual function is as follows for MSI
version 3.1:
v - Verbose output
o - Out-of-disk-space messages
i - Status messages
c - Initial UI parameters
e - All error messages
w - Non-fatal warnings
a - Startup of actions
r - Action-specific records
m - Out-of-memory or fatal exit information
u - User requests
p - Terminal properties
+ - Append to existing file
! - Flush each line to the log
"*" - Wildcard, log all information except for the v option. To include the
v option, specify "/l*v".
Once activated, you can find the log files that are generated in your
%TEMP% directory. Some log files generated in this directory are:
• Managed System Installation
–SysMgmt.log
• Management Station Installation
– MgmtSt.log
These particular log files are created by default if the Prerequisite Checker
user interface (UI) is running.
