### Logs

The `uds logs` command can be used to view the most recent logs of a bundle operation. Note that depending on your OS temporary directory and file settings, recent logs are purged after a certain amount of time, so this command may return an error if the logs are no longer available.

That is to say, variables set using the `--set` flag take precedence over all other variable sources.


## Duplicate Packages And Naming

It is possible to deploy multiple instances of the same Zarf package in a bundle. For example, the following `uds-bundle.yaml` deploys 3 instances of the [helm-overrides](src/test/packages/helm/zarf.yaml) Zarf packags:
```yaml
kind: UDSBundle
metadata:
name: duplicates
description: testing a bundle with duplicate packages in specified namespaces
version: 0.0.1

packages:
- name: helm-overrides
repository: localhost:5000/helm-overrides
ref: 0.0.1
overrides:
podinfo-component:
unicorn-podinfo: # name of Helm chart
namespace: podinfo-ns

# note the unique name and namespace
- name: helm-overrides-duplicate
repository: localhost:5000/helm-overrides
ref: 0.0.1
overrides:
podinfo-component:
unicorn-podinfo:
namespace: another-podinfo-ns

# note the unique name, namespace and the path to the Zarf package tarball
- name: helm-overrides-local-duplicate
path: src/test/packages/helm/zarf-package-helm-overrides-arm64-0.0.1.tar.zst
ref: 0.0.1
overrides:
podinfo-component:
unicorn-podinfo:
namespace: yet-another-podinfo-ns
```

The naming conventions for deploying duplicate packages are as follows:
1. The `name` field of the package in the `uds-bundle.yaml` must be unique
1. The duplicate packages must be deployed in different namespaces
1. In order to deploy duplicates of local packages, the `path` field must point to a Zarf package tarball instead of to a folder.

> [!NOTE]
> Today the duplicate packages feature is only supported for packages with Helm charts. This is because Helm charts' [namespaces can be overridden](docs/overrides.md#namespace) at deploy time.
## Zarf Integration
UDS CLI includes a vendored version of Zarf inside of its binary. To use Zarf, simply run `uds zarf <command>`. For example, to create a Zarf package, run `uds zarf create <dir>`, or to use the [airgap tooling](https://docs.zarf.dev/docs/the-zarf-cli/cli-commands/zarf_tools) that Zarf provides, run `uds zarf tools <cmd>`.
