Hi,

bmcdiscover --version
bmcdiscover - xCAT Version 2.15 (git commit
218c6d3acc8bdbd7f72115e48cda2b1a3613d18a, built Mon Nov  4 15:17:59
EST 2019)

Yesterday I discovered that bmcdiscover logs the passwords passed with -p

Looking through /var/log/messages on another mission, I noticed our
root password. Someone had forgotten which pw combo they were meant to
be using with bmcdiscover.

The problem is that it's now in the logs. I'm not afraid of editing
the logs - although I'd rather not.

Is this expected behaviour?

If I pass "-u name -p" without the password or just "-u name", will I
be prompted for the pw?

Is there anyway to not log the password if it's being sent as part of
the command?


Cheers
L.
