Description Danny Synk 2019-08-13 23:15:59 UTC
Description of problem:

Changing the value of Ansible's default verbosity setting in Satellite does not change the output of Ansible remote jobs.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.5.2


How reproducible:
100% reproducible


Steps to Reproduce:

1. In the Satellite webUI, navigate to Administer >> Settings >> Ansible;

2. Change the value of the `Default verbosity level` setting to anything other than the default (which is `Disabled`);

3. Initiate an Ansible remote job run against a set of content hosts;

4. Navigate to the `Remote action` subtask for the job.


Actual results:

Output is the same regardless of the value of the `Default verbosity level` setting.


Expected results:

Output verbosity corresponds to the value of this setting.

Hello,

I am not Ansible expert however before someone from the Satellite Ansible team picks up, I can comment that this setting should only add "ansible -vvvv" options. The more you set it more "-v" characters are appended.
