10.5.1.1 Output of Logfile Messages
The log file /var/adm/sw/swpackage.log captures output from the swpackage
session.
• Message logging by default sends verbose messages to stdout.
(Setting the verbose option to 0 reduces the amount of information in stdout.)
• Message logging also sends errors and warnings to stderr.
• No logfile messages are written in preview (-p) mode.
• The logfile is equal to stdout plus stderr.
Here is a sample log:
