Configuration files are subsequently sourced from ```/etc/oxidized/config``` then ```~/.config/oxidized/config```. The hashes will be merged, this might be useful for storing source information in a system wide file and user specific configuration in the home directory (to only include a staff specific username and password). Eg. if many users are using ```oxs```, see [Oxidized::Script](https://github.com/ytti/oxidized-script). + +To initialize a default configuration in your home directory ```~/.config/oxidized/config```, simply run ```oxidized``` once. If you don't further configure anything from the output and source sections, it'll extend the examples on a subsequent ```oxidized``` execution. This is useful to see what options for a specific source or output backend are available. ## Source - * gets list of nodes to poll - * must implement 'load' - * source can have 'name', 'model', 'group', 'username', 'password', 'input', 'output', 'prompt' - * name - name of the devices - * model - model to use ios/junos/xyz, model is loaded dynamically when needed (Also default in config file) - * input - method to acquire config, loaded dynamically as needed (Also default in config file) - * output - method to store config, loaded dynamically as needed (Also default in config file) - * prompt - prompt used for node (Also default in config file, can be specified in model too) - * 'sql' and 'csv' (supports any format with single entry per line, like router.db) -## Model - * lists commands to gather from given device model - * can use 'cmd', 'prompt', 'comment', 'cfg' - * cfg is executed in input/output/source context - * cmd is executed in instance of model - * 'junos', 'ios', 'ironware' and 'powerconnect' implemented +Oxidized supports ```CSV``` and ```SQLite``` as source backends. The CSV backend reads nodes from a rancid compatible router.db file. The SQLite backend will fire queries against a database and map certain fields to model items. Take a look at the [Cookbook](#cookbook) for more details. + +## Outputs + +Possible outputs are either ```file``` or ```git```. The file backend takes a destination directory as argument and will keep a file per device, with most recent running version of a device. The GIT backend (recommended) will initialize an empty GIT repository in the specified path and create a new commit on every configuration change. Take a look at the [Cookbook](#cookbook) for more details. + +Maps define how to map a model's fields to model [model fields](https://github.com/ytti/oxidized/tree/master/lib/oxidized/model). Most of the settings should be self explanatory, log is ignored if Syslog::Logger exists (>=2.0) and syslog is used instead. + +First create the directory where the CSV ```output``` is going to store device configs and start Oxidized once. +``` +mkdir ~/.config/oxidized/configs +oxidized +``` + +Now tell Oxidized where it finds a list of network devices to backup configuration from. You can either use CSV or SQLite as source. To create a CVS source add the following snippet: + +``` +source: + default: csv + csv: + file: ~/.config/oxidized/router.db + delimiter: !ruby/regexp /:/ + map: + name: 0 + model: 1 +``` + +Now lets create a file based device database (you might want to switch to SQLite later on). Put your routers in ```~/.config/oxidized/router.db``` (file format is compatible with rancid). Simply add an item per line: + +``` +router01.example.com:ios +switch01.example.com:procurve +router02.example.com:ios +``` + +Run ```oxidized``` again to take the first backups. + +# Installing Ruby 2.1.2 using RVM + +Install Ruby 2.1.2 build dependencies +``` +yum install curl gcc-c++ patch readline readline-devel zlib zlib-devel +yum install libyaml-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel make cmake +yum install bzip2 autoconf automake libtool bison iconv-devel +``` + +Install RVM +``` +curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable +``` + +Setup RVM environment and compile and install Ruby 2.1.2 and set it as default +``` +source /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh +rvm install 2.1.2 +rvm use --default 2.1.2 +``` -## Media - * TREX 2014 presentation - http://youtu.be/kBQ_CTUuqeU#t=3h ## Cookbook +### Debugging +In case a model plugin doesn't work correctly (ios, procurve, etc.), you can enable live debugging of SSH/Telnet sessions. Just add a ```debug``` option, specifying a log file destination to the ```input``` section. + +The following example will log an active ssh session to ```/home/fisakytt/.config/oxidized/log_input-ssh``` and telnet to ```log_input-telnet```.
