Grüße, You can can define a new device type that omits collection
of flash information (see rancid.types.conf(5)), or try rancid 3.8
or the current alpha which both have been altered to further reduce
fluctuation in flash info, or create a new module with a version of
DirSlotN() that filters this altogether, or complain to Cisco about
leaving debug code in production images. :)

I do not recall if the 900 runs XE or XR, but an example from XE:

!Flash: bootflash: 7 GB total (83% free)

We encountered this, and in some cases they would tick over the multi-megabyte mark, so the built-in function heasly mentions here didn't eliminate the noise adequately.
Our solution was to hack in a function that when an ASR920 is encountered, display the free space in ">500MB free". This still generated a diff if space dropped below 500, which happens occasionally when one of the ASR's maintenance tasks goes haywire.
