arrancid (2.3.4) - ignore bytes free in ShowFlash
|
|
Hi rancid list, Is it rancid style to ignore the output of bytes free in sub ShowFlash of arrancid? Versions: arrancid: rancid 2.3.4, Debian Squeeze EOS: Software image version: 4.8.3, Arista DCS-7124SX-F Looks like Arista stores some ntp drift info on a regular base to the flash: bash-4.0# pwd /mnt/flash/persist bash-4.0# ls -ls -rtl total 20 12 -rwxrwx--- 1 root eosadmin 10240 Mar 14 12:07 sys 8 -rwxrwx--- 1 root eosadmin 5120 Mar 16 08:12 local Guess this causes arrancid to "see" a diff in ShowFlash everytime this happens. Guess this is just noise? - !Flash: 1779585024 bytes total (1318834176 bytes free) + !Flash: 1779585024 bytes total (1318830080 bytes free) @Arista: Why not in tmpfs? This might hurt the flash. If there is ntp configured, this shouldn't matter to lose the drift info, after a reboot. I checked 2.3.8, but can't really see, that it's parsed diffrent So is it possible to ignore the line?
