We currently have ansible, solarwinds and librenms in our environment but ran into an issue recently where a config setting was lost. I know ansible can check these things but then I’ll have to configure email and stuff I guess to send alerts? What solution are you using?
Why not track
changesconfigs (derp) in a git repo and postgit diffafter each change?That’s how it works, except we use the Rancid default of CVS instead of git. Rancid handles pulling the configs and puts them into a CVS repo, then the diffs are sent to the channel.
Ah! Last I looked at Rancid it was backups with optional $REPO. TIL
