Subject: [rancid] exos.pm: patch to gather stack information
Message-ID: <02d6db83-460f-81fe-7159-bfdbf41e9cf7@ccgs.wa.edu.au>

Hi,

The patch below adds extra parsing to ShowVersion in exos.pm, to print
out the individual device serial numbers, bootrom and image version.
Mostly I wanted the serial number, since the others are normally the
same across a stack.

Here's two examples of output, for a standalone switch, and a stack:

#Switch: Serial 1638N-41359, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4

#Slot-1: Serial 1637N-41621, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4
#Slot-2: Serial 1638N-41448, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4
#Slot-3: Serial 1638N-41354, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4
#Slot-4: Serial 1638N-41318, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4
#Slot-5: Serial 1638N-41357, BootROM 1.0.1.8, IMG 22.6.1.4

This patch might be fuzzy since I generated it against upstream but I'm
running 3.9-1~bpo9+1 from Debian. Also I only have X440-G2s to test against.

I don't see it on the official page, but has anyone used rancid for backing up Mellanox switches?

Peace, from time to time, we have congestions on links to cisco devices
and so when rancid trying to connect, it gets cut off, so what is
needed is the following: if rancid encounters "authorization failed",
let it try encore until no such error occurs!

sample of the nuicance:

- !Interface: GigabitEthernet0/0, PLATFORM SGMII INTERFACE
- !Interface: GigabitEthernet0/1, PLATFORM SGMII INTERFACE
- !Interface: GigabitEthernet0/1, Backplane CN Gigabit Ethernet, 
+ !DEBUG: % Authorization failed.
+ !

Hi,

is there a way to add configurations of devices manually?

I have some devices that cannot be queried with the existing rancid-
scripts. This is not necessarily a bad thing either, as changes are
rarely made here. But since I'd like to have the configurations in the
repository as well, I'd like to add them manually via svn.

cd configs
svn add config.txt
svn commit

That's not good enough at this point, is it?

regards
Helge

I'm new to Rancid, just started playing with it.

Is somehow possible, when newer config file of same device exist, to keep 
only newest version, or it's already configured by default ?

not really - saving the config history is part of the majick.  one (you)
could write a script to periodically look at the CVS or SVN history and
delete all revisions besides the latest.  this would not work with git,
afaik.

Nope. That's the whole point of the versioning system - to keep track of 
old versions. In case of SVN you can't just delete old revisions (you 
can try to do some weird stuff like dumping only selected revisions and 
load it into a new repo but it's silly). It's not how it's supposed to 
work. BTW, a question to the original poster - what would be the point 
of such action? If you just want to keep one "offline" copy of your 
devices config, I suppose you could try to hack rancid-cvs not to use a 
repo altogether but what for?

If size is a concern, it doesn't need take n*size to store n days of 
configs like e.g. Solarwinds NCM. Only differences are stored.

At my last job we had 7 years worth of config for some devices with no 
storage struggle at all.

I went with this (which requires non-spaces after the colon):

    /^(?:Slot-\d|Switch)\s+:\s+[^\s]+/i &&
        ProcessHistory("COMMENTS","keysort","D2","#$_")
        && next;

because otherwise you pick up empty slots as well. The raw output is

Slot-1 dblockr3x.2 # show version
Slot-1          : 800618-00-16 1828N-40693 Rev 16 BootROM: 1.0.1.8
IMG: 30.4.1.2
Slot-2          : 800618-00-16 1828N-40697 Rev 16 BootROM: 1.0.1.8
IMG: 30.4.1.2
Slot-3          :
Slot-4          :
Slot-5          :
Slot-6          :
Slot-7          :
Slot-8          :

which processes down to this with my change:

#Slot-1          : 800618-00-16 1828N-40693 Rev 16 BootROM: 1.0.1.8
IMG: 30.4.1.2
#Slot-2          : 800618-00-16 1828N-40697 Rev 16 BootROM: 1.0.1.8

Hi all,

Im having an issue with devices of this kind.
Logs show:

Trying to get all of the configs.
brrj-cs-4: missed cmd(s): show bootvar, show inventory, show vlan
brrj-cs-4: End of run not found

brrj-cs-3: missed cmd(s): show bootvar, show inventory, show vlan

=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 1.
brrj-cs-3: missed cmd(s): show bootvar, show inventory, show vlan
brrj-cs-3: End of run not found
!
brrj-cs-4: missed cmd(s): show bootvar, show inventory, show vlan
brrj-cs-4: End of run not found
!

However I can login to the devices using clogin. It seems however that the script isn't able to do so.

Was anyone else able to solve this issue?
