Hi everyone, just would like to know, if there is already a "just undocumented" RANCID integration for Observium?
I found a list point in the docu wiki, so I am just curious about.
You guys do a great job, btw!
Best regards, Florian

Hi Florian
Yes, there is a "basic" integration.
It's very simple to configure.
Just specify the Rancid directories in config.php like this:
$config['rancid_configs'][] = '/var/lib/rancid/routers/configs/'; $config['rancid_configs'][] = '/var/lib/rancid/switches/configs/'; $config['rancid_ignorecomments'] = 1;
devices in rancid need to have exactly the same name as in observium. Unfortunately you will have no history in observium, only the actual config.
Regards
Matthias

As far as I know, we have history browsing if you have the php5-svn module installed... [and use svn as versioning for your rancid]
I don't use it so I'm not sure how it works :-)

It's very basic, gives you a menu bar with the last 5 or so revisions on, doesn't show changes between them afaik.
geert did it :)
