Hi,

As part of executing Ansible playbook, Seeing below lines are being logged on Remote Host. Would like to know if there is any option to disable this.  
Tried no\_log option. But no luck.

remoteHost sudo: em9admin : TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/home/em9admin ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/sh -c echo BECOME-SUCCESS-iuycximswdcidkjcatqpzeibxypiccyf; /usr/bin/python /home/em9admin/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1532517943.45-23653263715232/setup.py; rm -rf “/home/em9admin/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1532517943.45-23653263715232/” \> /dev/null 2\>&1  
remoteHost sshd[9992]: pam\_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user em9admin  
remoteHost sshd[10105]: Accepted password for em9admin from 172.19.252.33 port 50512 ssh2  
remoteHost sshd[10105]: pam\_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user em9admin by (uid=0)  
remoteHost sudo: em9admin : TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/home/em9admin ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/sh -c echo BECOME-SUCCESS-lhunebpywtsbmaewmvyysvirpqbvnyfr; /usr/bin/python /home/em9admin/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1532517945.47-208236500843683/user.py; rm -rf “/home/em9admin/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1532517945.47-208236500843683/” \> /dev/null 2\>&1
