 ### Viewing Detailed Logs
 
-Odoo/OpenUpgrade logs are displayed in real-time. For a problematic migration:
+All output (scripts, Docker containers, OpenUpgrade logs) is automatically saved to `migration.log` at the project root. The file is overwritten at the start of each run (full migration or resume).
+
+```bash
+# Follow live output while also saving to file (already done automatically)
+tail -f migration.log
+
+# Search for errors after the fact
+grep -i error migration.log
+
+# View with ANSI colors preserved
+less -R migration.log
+```
+

 3. Add a fix in the `pre_upgrade.sh` for that version
 4. Restart the migration
