[rancid] Re: /tmp/.networking.run.lock exists

[Pena, Antonio]

Hello Justin

Thank you so much, I think could be the issue, I recently added a bunch
of additional routers, so maybe that is happening, I will try this to
see that helps

Thank you all

Antonio

It sounds like you're checking too many hosts in one single linear run
and it's taking too long.  You may want to either increase PAR_COUNT in
etc/rancid.conf or you may want to run each of the groups listed in
LIST_OF_GROUPS from cron separately.  

0 */1 * * * rancid-run abc
0 */1 * * * rancid-run def
0 */1 * * * rancid-run ghi
0 */1 * * * rancid-run jkl
0 */1 * * * rancid-run mno

I do both.  I set PAR_COUNT to 5 and I run each of our POPs (how I break
up LIST_OF_GROUPS) separately from cron.  That way a slow speed link in
one POP won't hold up the rancid on the other POPs.

That's my take on your problem.

Justin

Hello

I started to get this message after Rancid runs:

more networking.20070112.110101
starting: Fri Jan 12 11:01:01 EST 2007

hourly config diffs failed: /tmp/.networking.run.lock exists
-rw-r-----  1 rancid netadm 0 Jan 12 10:01 /tmp/.networking.run.lock

ending: Fri Jan 12 11:01:01 EST 2007
You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root

I deleted the file, but next time breaks again.

Also found another file on /tmp/ called "rancid.networking.2447", if I
cat this file comes with same message line....

cvs update: [16:46:32] waiting for rancid's lock in
/usr/local/rancid//var/CVS/networking

Any help is really appreciated
