DUP Message Logs
Logging occurs when you run a command for a DUP. The logs maintain information about all update
activities. DUPs write to the Messages log. If you install the same package more than once on the same
system, the log is appended. The messages files directory contain messages about a wide range of events
on the system. Therefore, you must scan through the log file to find the messages that are relevant to
DUPs.
Message Location
The default path for the older version prior to DUP 7.2 framework log file is %SystemDrive%\dell
\updatepackage\log.
