mmdsh quiet mode

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

mmdsh currently prints ssh banner messages in the output which is overlapping with the actual cmd output, it will be nice if mmdsh internally uses a quiet mode equalent to ssh -q to ignore the banner messages in the mmdsh cmd output.

    here is the sample of the banner msg we are seeing when using mmdsh 

    mmdsh can use a -q flag in the backend to supress these banner messages. 

     

    for example when a remote cmd is executed with ssh , a banner msg is printed. But the same cmd with -q options prints a clean output

    [root@VM:lmip250a ~]# ssh lmip251a 'uptime'

    We feel this is likely the ssh you are using that is producing the message.

    Is the native ssh producing the message? Can you send us a sample of the banner
