[rancid] Set different collection scheduler by groups

[JinZhou]

Hi,
I am using Rancid to maintain Cisco routers and switches configuration. Currently, I collect information from HQ and branch hourly. By using # 0 * * * * rancid /home/rancid/bin/rancid-run -m ***@YYY.comBut I want to collect data from HQ hourly and from branch daily. So I create two GROUPs to contain HQ and Branch's switches # LIST_OF_GROUP="HQ BRANCH" (In /etc/rancid/rancid.conf) Then use# 0 * * * * rancid /home/rancid/bin/rancid-run -r <HQ> # 0 23 * * * rancid /home/rancid/bin/rancid-run -r <Branch>
Is it correct?

The other questing is if I only collect one switch¡¯s configuration from HQ group, use
# 0 * * * * rancid /home/rancid/bin/rancid-run -r <HQ>/<Device name >
Is it correct and what will happen in /var/lib/rancid/logs/?
Now, I got (group name).20081127.140001.

Thanks for your help. Regards, David

Each group will have its own log directory. The same should be for
each device configuration and router.db

What is your directory structure?

Hi,
I tried those two things yesterday. In terms of HQ and Branch, they have
been collected data in same time. For example, I tried to collect HQ at
9:30, Branch at 9:45. But HQ and Branch's log both appear at 9:30 and 9:45
in /var/lib/rancid/logs. I was just wondering if you can figure out what's
going on here. May be about the definition about group?
For the individual device, it doesn't take shot. Nothing happen. Should I
see log file like (device name).(group name).20081127.140001?
Cheers,
David
