This is the public portal for all IBM Z Hardware and Operating System related offerings. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Currently the Docker Daemon dumps the contents of a user's config.json file into the zCX joblog (SYSPRINT) if there is a syntax error in the Dockerfile (e.g. missing "\" continuation on RUN command or perhaps other situations). The user's config.json file may contain sensitive/confidential information, such as the http/s proxy string with a userid/password in the clear. When in SYSPRINT all authorized operators can see the proxy id/password.
This is in contrast to the unix permission settings that protect config.json from other users.
The only current option is to disable Docker Daemon logging for the entire instance, by setting the Docker Daemon Logging option to "fatal" (essentially almost no logging).
This effectively disables the other existing logging levels options of info, debug (default), warn and error.
The idea here is to re-enable docker logging options by filtering out confidential information with the standard "XXXXX" for fields such as password. Ideally there would be a new radio-button (yes/no) option to "suppress confidential config.json information" in the zCX instance configuration options. So people
Restoring the logging options has benefits. Running with "fatal" suppresses many useful messages for both developers and system admins, making the system more difficult to maintain stability/availability. If using "debug" option today, a security risk finding is needed. This idea would remove the risk finding, making security reviews easier.
