Most if not all Linux/Unix commands do not have pagination built in by default and users rely on pipes to more/less to control the page size of output. By default hammer ships with a very small 25 line pagination setting which is bothersome as a user who wants to view more input. Most users outside of an actual 80x25 line terminal will have way more screen real-estate beyond the 25 we ship with now. There is also no argument available to disable paging so users are forced to know to edit a config file to adjust this value. Ideally the pagination would be disabled entirely by default and could optionally be turned on. Currently we have to advocate users putting in arbitrarily large values to 'disable' pagination, eg: :per_page: 9999
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

Per irc discussion with Tazim, switching back to ON_QA as it has shown up the steps actually verified something different. Correct steps: 1. create $enough resources of some type (e.g. hosts, architectures), where $enough is number higher than value of your :per_page: setting 2. use hammer to list resources of that type (e.g. hammer host list) 3. hammer should show all resources in the system Additional checks: 1) when you use `hammer host list --per-page=5` only first 5 items are shown 2) when you use `hammer host list --per-page=5 --page=2` only second 5 items are shown 3) when you use `hammer host list --page=2` only second page is shown, respecting :per_page: setting from the config file
