[rancid] Backup nothing: Dell Force10 MXL Switches

[Chenyu Lee - NOAA Affiliate]

rancid version: 3.7

I can run *dllogin* to the switch.

$ ./dllogin <ip>
<ip>
spawn ssh -c aes128-ctr -x -l rancid-check <ip>
rancid-check@<ip>'s password:
FTOS#
FTOS#


But it backed up nothing for the two configurations in *router.db*.

<ip>;*force10*;up
<ip>;*dell*;up

Please provide any suggestions.

​Thanks

force10 uses clogin, not dlllogin. see etc/rancid.types.base. plogin
will choose based on the router.db files.

look in the group's log files for errors.

I set "<ip>;dell;up" in router.db and get the below errors.

Trying to get all of the configs.
<ip>: End of run not found
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 1.
<ip>: End of run not found
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 2.
<ip>: End of run not found
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 3.
<ip>: End of run not found
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.
=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 4.
<ip>: End of run not found
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.

Then I try to execute the command stated in "etc/rancid.types.base", it
seems the command incorrect.

FTOS#
FTOS#show switch
^
% Error: Invalid input at "^" marker.
FTOS#
