>That worked perfectly. Thanks for the fast reply.

 

>For reference, if anyone else have issues with new procurve software, this is what I added:

 

># This routine parses "show tech transceivers"

<sub ShowTechTransceivers {

    ...

    while (<INPUT>) {

        ...

        # These next two lines are new

        next if (/[A-Z][a-z][a-z] [A-Z][a-z][a-z] [0-9]+ [0-2][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]:[0-5][0-9] 20[0-9][0-9]/);

        next if (/show time/);

        next if (/^(\s*|\s*$cmd\s*)$/);

        ...

}

Yes, it's fairly easy to filter out individual lines by editing the filter inside the perl scripts to make them go away. I have done this many, many times. The only trick is that when you upgrade you might lose your change, so save a copy or diff that you can re-apply later.

In this case, the place where you'd put the filter is in ~rancid/bin/hrancid in the routine "ShowTechTransceivers"

Right at the top where it has 'next if (...)'

either above or below that you can add a line that says something like next if (/thing I want to match here/) which will skip that line.

Hi all, 

 

Is there a way of altering the output of rancid, or which commands it runs, or how the 'diff'ing' works?

 

We seem to have a problem with the latest hp software, where 'show tech transceivers' seems to include a call to 'show time'. Hence it notices a diff in the output timestamp and and it's fairly annoying if you actually want to keep track of changes.
