Description Pavel Moravec 2021-02-02 09:34:40 UTC

Description of problem:
For "sos report --batch --build --no-report -o apache -k apache.log=yes", sos_logs/sos.log prints:

2021-02-02 09:38:25,187 INFO: [sos.report:setup] effective options now: --batch --build --noreport --only-plugins apache --plugopts apache.log=on

Some of the options are invalid / cant be used on cmdline:

--noreport
--plugopts apache.log=on

See https://github.com/sosreport/sos/issues/2288#issuecomment-771473281 for the complete list of such options.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sos-4.0-7


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Call sos report with either option mentioned in the https://github.com/sosreport/sos/issues/2288#issuecomment-771473281 .
2. Grep for "effective options" in sos_logs/sos.log to see if valid option was printed there.


Actual results:
Invalid options printed there.


Expected results:
cmdline options to match "effective options".


Additional info:
some cmdline options names will change, that's ok/expected.
