Environment

VMware Smart Assurance - NCM

Resolution

I have applied a patch to the NCM product and want to check the log files for any possible issues

Additional Information

The log files are present under $VOYENCE_HOME/logs, file names are named hotfix_install.log and hotfix_debug.log

hotfix_debug.log <- Produced when installing a NCM Hotfix. This log contains a dump of all the variables from  InstallAnywhere  and it not in chronological order. This log does however contain useful trouble shooting information.
hotfix_install.log <- Produced when installing a NCM Hotfix. This log is a plain and generic chronological log that contains every function of the install.
