By default, the library is extremely verbose

[Lucas Alvares Gomes]

By default the redfish library is extremely verbose. The most basic usage, attempting to connect() to the Redfish manager will dump more than a 1000 (a thousand) lines of debug code on the screen.

For example, see this log: http://paste.openstack.org/show/598091/ ([updated] apparently paste trucanted it at line 935, but the full log has 1222 lines)

All it does is: 1) Create a virtualenv; 2) Install the dependencies; 3) import and connect to the redfish manager (simulator running locally).

Until we reached 1.0, it seems appropriate to keep a higher level of verbosity to ease debugging. That default behaviour will be changed for 1.0.

@Bruno,

I disagree that we should wait for 1.0 for this. Hard-coding configuration is never a good solution and, it (should) take(s) 2 lines of code to enable the debug level log in any python library, e.g:

 import logging
 logging.getLogger('redfish').setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

That's it, anyone testing/developing the library will now have access to the debug logs. It just needs to be documented properly.
