logging in the client

Hi,

I wanted to know Does ansible keep record things execute on client by generating any sort of logs in the client …so later i can go back that and see what changes has been made in particular to that host.

i believe some sort of directives may be configured on file,but i’m running out of time to deep dive now.Hope i will get your input.

Ansible will log to syslog or systemd, depending on system.

The amount of logging, can be controlled through ansible.cfg or using the no_log directive to disable it for a task/play.

If you run a playbook, you can also use the --diff options, to see what changes. More info see http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_checkmode.html#showing-differences-with-diff
