Did you read the logs on one non-working switch and compare with a working
one?

Hi Ugo,
I did not find any significant difference between working and non-working
configurations,
but for some of the switch rancid user locally present on working, and at
the same time rancid user is not present on one of the working switches as
well, I don't think so if this is the case.

When i run rancid -t cisco switch1.xx.xx.com through switch10.xx.xx.com, it
always gives me "switch10.xx.xx.com: End of run not found"
Thanks

I am sorry, let me re-phrase, it is not with 1-2 switches but all switches.

If you wish to alter a rancid device type, you should create your own name
that does not conflict with one in rancid.types.base, and place it in
rancid.types.conf. rancid.types.base will be overwritten during the next
upgrade.

That is very odd. Needing to remove the group directory to restore
collections implies that something is conflicting with the rancid
processes. Without seeing the contents of your log file, possibly
two rancid-run processes running at the same time because the lock
file has been removed or some other process is altering the group
directory.

you should share the entire contents of the group's log file.

Hi Heasley,

Thanks for your email, The configuration of my switches in rancid has begun
functioning as intended. The recent changes I implemented as per the
earlier email, have proven to be effective in resolving the issue.
