[Users] Disable MOTD on shell login

[Christian Hernandez]

If I may interject....

Disabling the MOTD makes it easier to script...let's say if I want to get a
list of VMs' snapshots and out them in a for loop...I would have to write
the output of the rhevm-shell to a file; parse that file (oh BTW there are
^[[H and ^[[2 in that file...just to make things more interesteing); then
run it through my loop - and then pass that into rhevm-shell...repeating
the process. Also it doesn't help that rhevm-shell does a "clear" of the
screen when it runs (can I turn that off too?)

I would have to do that for every command.

I don't mind having an MOTD...just wished there was an option to turn it off


In short: It makes it easier to script and automate tasks.


Thank you,
