Update:  possible that customer used default credentials with a password of "a".  Although, it should not reflect status: changed in any way, this is designed to protect a password if it is inadvertently typed into the ansible parameters.   Potential workaround:  asking customer to change the password to something less common than "a" and retest Bug fix:  how to go about requesting that?  Git Hub?
Hello, Looking for help resolving this problem. I’m trying to gather SMB share details from the shares as suggested in SMB module documentation: ansible-powerscale/Product Guide.md at 1.6.0 · dell/ansible-powerscale (github.com) This is how I use the module in my code: name: Get SMB share permissions from the clusterdellemc.powerscale.smb:onefs_host: "{ {onefs_host}}"verify_ssl: "{ {verify_ssl}}"api_user: "{ {api_user}}"api_password: "{ {api_password}}"access_zone: "{ {item.zone}}"share_name: "{ {item.share}}"state: presentregister: getpermissions_resultwith_items: "{ {share_list}}" The output returned, however, is very unexpected.  It shows status "changed" instead of the expected "ok", and the output also contains some "a" characters replaced with eight asterisk* characters in its place.  Is this a known issue with 1.6.0 PowerScale module?  Any help as to resolve it / troubleshoot it? Expected behavior example... ok: [DBISILONSIMULATOR] => (item={'share': 'CreatedFromAnsible', 'zone': 'testzone'}) => { "ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "invocation": { "module_args": { "access_based_enumeration": null, "access_based_enumeration_root_only": null, "access_zone": "testzone", "api_password": "VALUE_SPECIFIED_IN_NO_LOG_PARAMETER",...... "create_permissions": "default acl", Unexpected behavior example... changed: [fbkppexfer] => (item={'share': 'PKITA_24891470_ADT', 'zone': 'PPEXFER-Ring0'}) => { "ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": "VALUE_SPECIFIED_IN_NO_LOG_PARAMETER",.... ", "create_permissions": "def********ult ********cl",  
PowerScale Ansible Module v1.6 dellemc.powerscale.smb returns ******** for 
character "a"?
