I have VDX switches working.

I use brcdvcs type

2 6940 and 2 6740 in a stack

rancid.types.conf:

# Brocade VCS 10g/40g
brcdvcs;script;rancid -t brcdvcs
brcdvcs;login;a10login
brcdvcs;module;brocade
brcdvcs;inloop;brocade::inloop

brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowSupport;show support
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowMonitor;show system monitor
brcdvcs;command;brocade::ShowConfig;show running-config

(you'll want to change your rbridge-ids appropriately)

and reliably.
