Bug 1215824 - [RFE] RHEL 6 subscription-manager: log exact registration commands used and their error outputs if an

The main holdup with this is verifying we scrub passwords from the log messages, which is complicated a bit by the arg parsing module we use (optparse).

You can do most of this with recent versions, however it is not turned on by default. And it alter every log entry instead of just one at start up.

If you change the 'formatter_rhsm_log' section in /etc/rhsm/logging.conf
from:

[formatter_rhsm_log]
format=%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] %(cmd_name)s:%(process)d @%(filename)s:%(lineno)d - %(message)s
datefmt=
class=logging.Formatter

to:

[formatter_rhsm_log]
format=%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] "%(cmd_line)s" %(cmd_name)s:%(process)d @%(filename)s:%(lineno)d - %(message)s
datefmt=
class=logging.Formatter


(ie, add the %(cmd_line)s to the formatter specifier, it will log the cli line (sys.argv). to each log entry.

Sample output:
