    CAUTION: When you perform a product update, the existing ubroker.properties file is saved with -save appended to the filename; and a new ubroker.properties file is created. This process repeats each time you perform a product update.
    Because only the current version of the file is saved when you perform an update, you might want to save a copy of your original ubroker.properties file in the install-path/properties directory before you perform an update.
