Logging of Deployment Output is missing

[tbludau]

In the first versions of the playbook I built a log file to monitor the current state of the installation. Since the installation takes about 10 minutes, you could check whether it is still running and at the end of the installation you can see whether everything was carried out correctly. Furthermore, the SAP team can be shown that everything worked properly.

This can be added with a tee command in my eyes to add additional informations to a additional log file. (/var/log/hana_install_rh1.log or f.e. /tmp/hana_install_rh1.log)

I think this is a good thing to explain the SAP Guys, that everything is working as explained in the documentation.

@tbludau are you talking about Ansible log here or SAP HANA installation specific log?

@tbludau: I can think of the following workaround:
1 - We copy a little script for monitoring the installation progress to the managed node, e.g. to directory /tmp.
2 - As the last task before the HANA installation, we show how to execute the command.
