According to the following snippet from [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/administration/tipsandtricks.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/administration/tipsandtricks.html),  
some of the options are overriden. Is there a way to find out a list of the options that will be ignored? If the list of ignored options is too big, maybe a list of options that isn’t overriden by ansible tower?

Tower overrides some ansible.cfg options. For example, Tower stores the SSH ControlMaster sockets, the SSH agent socket, and any other per-job run items in a per-job temporary directory, secured by multi-tenancy access control restrictions via PRoot.
