XPS Trace Messages

In previous releases, all XPS log and trace messages were written to the Policy Server log (smps.log).

XPS logging has been enhanced to:

• Write all log messages to the Policy Server log.
• Write all trace messages to the Policy Server profiler log.

  Note: All XPS trace messages are written to the profiler log, regardless of whether the Policy Server profiler is enabled.
