The best way is to stop rancid from running the commands that generate non-config output. There is no easy way to have rancid grab that output, but not send out alert emails for it, or somehow ignore it for checking in purposes.</div>

The standard way to do this is to create new config blocks in rancid.types.conf for a given type and give it a unique name, and leave off all of the commands you don't need. Then reference that new type name in your router.db files.</div>

<div>Every time Rancid runs, we get erroneous reports because the power usage fluctuates by 1-2 watts per run. Any suggestions on how to keep the good information (availability, etc) without getting this level of detail?</div>
