[rancid] Dell Switch Errors

[Willie Bollinger]

I am running a couple of Dell 5448 Switches and am having issues with
the dell dell extensions. I know this isn't part of the standard install
but am hoping someone may have an idea as to what is going on.

This is what I am seeing in the logs when rancid runs

=====================================
Getting missed routers: round 1.
opened network stream from 10.10.111.2 if () at
/home2/rancid/bin/drancid line 2
72.
FOUND PROMPT: dsw1-cc#
found_end = 1, clean_run = 0
10.10.111.2: End of run not found
end
=====================================

The interesting thing is I can use dlogin manually and do a show run and
everything works so I assume my .cloginrc file is fine

***@staff$ ./dlogin -autoenable -c "show run" -f ../.cloginrc 10.10.111.2
10.10.111.2
spawn telnet 10.10.111.2
Trying 10.10.111.2...
Connected to 10.10.111.2.
Escape character is '^]'.


User Name:rancid
Password:*******

dsw1-cc#
dsw1-cc# show run
port jumbo-frame
interface ethernet g48
switchport mode trunk
exit
vlan database

Any input would be appreciated

I assume this works when you telnet in and run these commands. What you might end up doing is running a packet capture via wireshark / tcpdump, and compare doing it by hand to your clogin command; it may be an improper newline or something simple like that.

I am not sure if I am using the rancid command correctly but here is
what it outputs

I added the path and it appears to be getting output now but I just got
an email that the switch cannot be successfully contacted

you need to fix that; fix your path so that it includes the directory
where dlogin is.

I exported it and then sent another email with the output but im not
sure of the exact syntax of the rancid command

I didnt receive/see the mail.
i think the dell script is called drancid. if so, drancid -dl 10.10.111.2

Where do I set NOPIPE=YES at?

in your shell environment; you also need to export it, in case you
didnt know that.

WriteTerm: dsw1-cc#exitConnection to 10.10.111.2 closed by foreign host.

The line above leads me to believe that the regex is failing because the
regex expects the last character on the line to be the t in exit.

drancid:
if (/$prompt\s?exit$/) { warn "left WriteTerm on: $_"; $clean_run=1;last; }

also in drancid:
if (/[>#]\s?exit$/) {
$clean_run=1;
last;
}

Try removing the $ after the word exit in one or both of those regex conditions.

you should try it like the extreme script (xrancid) to be safer.

From what I can see the script does a show version, show vlan, and show running-config and all of these work properly when I telnet into the switch and run them manually.

Right, which is why you need to take a look at a packet capture to see if it's a broken newline or similar. Compare and contrast what the script is sending with what you're sending when you do it by hand. That'll be the easiest way to diagnose things.
