The set of rancid groups can either be provided -as command-line arguments or via the -.I LIST_OF_GROUPS -variable in -.BR env (5), -if the group argument is omitted. -.PP -A lock file is maintained per-group to prevent simultaneous runs for a given -group by -.IR do-diffs (1). -The lock file will be named -.IR .<group>.run.lock -and will be located in -.IR $TMPDIR -(see below). -.PP -A log file is produced under -.IR $BASEDIR/logs -for each rancid group processed. The file name will be <group>.YYYYMMDD.HHMMSS -(year month day . hour minute second). -.PP -.B do-diffs -is normally used to run rancid from -.BR cron (8). -For example: -.PP -.in +1i -.nf -0 * * * * /usr/local/rancid/bin/do-diffs -.fi -.in -1i -.\" -.PP -.\" -The command-line options are as follows: -.TP -.B \-m mail_rcpt -Specify the recipient of diff mail, which is normally rancid-<group>. The -argument may be a single address, multiple comma separated addresses, or -.B \-m -may be specified multiple times. -.\" -.TP -.B \-r device_name -Specify the name, as it appears in a group's router.db, of a particular -device to collect and generate diffs for. The device must be marked "up". -If a group is not specified on the command-line, rancid will be run -against any group in which the device_name appears. -.sp -The -.B \-r -option alters the subject line of the diff mail. It will begin -with <group name>/<device name> rather than just the group name alone. -.\" -.SH ENVIRONMENT -.B do-diffs -utilizes the following environment variables from -.BR env (5). -.\" -.TP -.B BASEDIR -Location of group directories, etc. -.\" -.TP -.B LIST_OF_GROUPS -List of rancid groups to collect. -.\" -.TP -.B PATH -Search path for utilities. -.\" -.TP -.B TMPDIR -Directory to hold temporary and lock files. -.SH ERRORS -If rancid fails to run or collect a device's configuration, the particular -group's log file (mentioned above) should be consulted. Any errors produced -by -.BR cvs (1) -or any of the rancid scripts should be included, whether they be a botched -cvs tree, login authentication failure, rancid configuration error, etc. If -the log file produces no clues, the next debugging step should be run the -commands manually. For example, can the user who runs rancid login to the -device with 'clogin hostname', and so on. -.BR -.SH FILES -.TP -.B $BASEDIR/bin/env -.B do-diffs -configuration file. -.El -.SH SEE ALSO -.BR control_rancid (1), -.BR router.db (5), -.BR env (5) |
