[rancid] Cisco IOS - "serial number" file changing in flash ?

[vom513]

Hello,

Apologies if this has been covered before.  I did search, and didn’t seem to see this specific issue.

I have a Cisco IOS AP (i.e. older standalone/autonomous).  Every once in a while (I don’t see a time pattern here), RANCID sees a change of a file in flash.

The file’s name is the PCB serial number of the AP:

- !Flash:     8  -rwx           6   Dec 9 2021 17:19:40 -05:00  FOC12345LLK
+ !Flash:     8  -rwx           6  Dec 14 2021 05:31:51 -05:00  FOC12345LLK

Is this a known issue ?  Perhaps fixed in newer versions of RANCID (I’m running 3.9) ?

Thanks for any insight.
