[rancid] f5rancid and chassis fan speed/ShowSslCrt issues

[Deny IP Any Any]

Greetings. I have a copy of f5rancid (version 1.8 perhaps?) currently
gathering config info from a F5 BIG-IP Version 9.4.7 perfectly fine. I
have another F5 unit, running BIG-IP 9.4.8 Build 355.0 Final, which is
giving me some trouble, described below.


For some reason, when I manually run "rancid-run -r" against the new
box, it gathers the config fine. When rancid runs via crontab, it
complains about missing the ShowSslKey/ShowSslCrt commands ("missed
cmd(s): ls --full-time --color=never /config/ssl/ssl.crt,ls
--full-time --color=never /config/ssl/ssl.key"; I have simply removed
the troublesome lines from my @commandtable for the time being.

The other issue is that F5 has decided to include the chassis fan
speed in the output from 'bigpipe platform', which causes hourly
diffs. Such as:

[***@Dev-F5:Active] config # bigpipe platform | grep -A 1 "CHASSIS FAN"
+-> CHASSIS FAN
| | (1) active - 10887rpm (2) active - 11250rpm (3) active - 11250rpm
[***@Dev-F5:Active] config # bigpipe platform | grep -A 1 "CHASSIS FAN"
+-> CHASSIS FAN
| | (1) active - 10546rpm (2) active - 10887rpm (3) active - 10887rpm
[***@Dev-F5:Active] config # bigpipe platform | grep -A 1 "CHASSIS FAN"
+-> CHASSIS FAN
| | (1) active - 10887rpm (2) active - 10887rpm (3) active - 11250rpm


Is there a newer/better f5rancid that would work around either of these issues?
