[rancid] XRRANCID with CRS-1 devices

John,
	Hello! Thanks for getting back to me! Based on your responses, here is what I see:

Item 1)

Yes, xrrancid is picking up the memory from sh version

!RANCID-CONTENT-TYPE: cisco-xr
!
!Chassis type: CRS-16/S - a CRS-16/S router
!CPU: 7457
!
!Memory: main 4194304K
!Memory: nvram 1019k
!Memory: pcmcia disk0 2049888k
!

So it is working as designed


Item 2)

I can't speak for the ASR series. We don't have any, but for the CRS-1, I would recommend "show redundancy". Here is the output

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ROUTER#sh redundancy     
Redundancy information for node 0/RP0/CPU0:
==========================================
Node 0/RP0/CPU0 is in ACTIVE role
Partner node (0/RP1/CPU0) is in STANDBY role
Standby node in 0/RP1/CPU0 is ready
Standby node in 0/RP1/CPU0 is NSR-ready

Reload and boot info

There have been 0 switch-overs since reload

Active node reload "Cause: Lost Connection to all fabric racks"
Standby node reload "Cause: HBAgent reloading node on receiving reload notification"

Redundancy information for node 1/RP0/CPU0:
==========================================
Node 1/RP0/CPU0 is in ACTIVE role
Partner node (1/RP1/CPU0) is in STANDBY role
Standby node in 1/RP1/CPU0 is ready
Standby node in 1/RP1/CPU0 is NSR-ready

----------------------

Active node booted Fri Jul 15 05:39:32 2011: 5 weeks, 6 days, 8 hours, 15 minutes ago
Standby node boot Fri Jul 15 05:39:29 2011: 5 weeks, 6 days, 8 hours, 15 minutes ago
Standby node last went not ready Fri Aug 19 05:05:59 2011: 6 days, 8 hours, 48 minutes ago
Standby node last went ready Fri Aug 19 05:08:24 2011: 6 days, 8 hours, 46 minutes ago
There have been 0 switch-overs since reload

Active node reload "Cause: self-reset to use new boot image"
Standby node reload "Cause: self-reset to use new boot image"

Item 3) 
	The output from "admin show env all" is quite verbose on the CRS-1. It includes readings for the following:
Temperature readings from LOTS of sensors
Threshold Information for temperatures
Voltage Information
LED Information
Fan Information
Power supply information


I will not post the full output here, but anyone wants it, I can provide sample output.
Personally, I don't know what I would want from this command

Item 4) 
	On the CRS-1 "show diag summary" is far less verbose than show inventory:

Item 5)
	Yeah, the "show controllers" command is not much help on the CRS-1. 

Item 6) 
      The show vlan command does not show anything interesting for the CRS-1.


If anyone wants any output/feedback on the CRS-1. Please let me know!

Thanks!
Dave

> All,

We have single and multi-chassis CSR-1 systems currently running IOS-XR 3.9. What I am seeing is that some of the commands syntax are not supported on the device at all and others are not pulling all the information that they might. In the hopes that it might help improve this script, I have listed my observations below:

That is intentional; sort of an artifact of rancid's day 1 behavior.  it is
a CRS 16 router and that is the model of the cpu.  the memory should follow
those lines, such as an ASR:

!Memory: main 4194304K
!Memory: nvram 219k
!Memory: pcmcia disk0 1605616k
!Memory: pcmcia disk1 1605616k

perhaps this isn't happening for the CRS?  I dont have access to any; the ASR
is bad enough :)

I think this was blindly assumed from IOS-rancid.  Does the ASR 1k have this
command?  the 9k doesnt support it.

Looks like RSP LED info (perhaps) and PS capacity are the only interesting
bits on the ASR.  on the CRS?

nor on the 9k.  on the 1k?  Perhaps show diag summary is interesting; but it
seems mostly a duplicate of show inventory.

also likely a remnant of IOS.  on the 1k?

again, probably a remnant of IOS switches.  the 9k doesnt have show vlan.
do those show anything interesting that isnt in the config?

> 7) We should also have the command "admin show running-config" added. The reason for this is that on multi-chassis systems each chassis has it S/N entered and is assigned a rack number. In addition, fabric chassis information is recorded here.
