pca sends messages for every installed patch to syslog, you should find
the ouput in /var/adm/messages. This is sufficient in most cases.
If you want more detailed log output, I would use something like this to
redirect pca's complete output to a logfile:
pca --install ... 2>&1 | tee -a /var/tmp/pca-install.log
This will show the complete output from pca on screen, as usual, but
also append it to the file /var/tmp/pca-install.log.
