Thanks for the pointer. I had a look and the @commandtable array contains the
following three lines:
{'more system:running-config' => 'WriteTerm'},
{'show running-config' => 'WriteTerm'},
{'write term' => 'WriteTerm'},
Which I assume are to make sure it can get the config from multiple different
types and versions of Cisco devices. All of these commands work on a 7204
(which means it was getting the config three times I think), so I've commented
out two of them so it's only executing a single "show run" command.
This seems to have helped quite a lot with the OSPF timeouts. I've cranked up
RANCID to run every 10 minutes to flog the poor box to death and see if it will
definitely not interfere with OSPF now. If it still does then I'll have to drop
back to 2 second hello intervals which should definitely resolve all of the
problems.
Thanks for the suggestion of changing the "scheduler allocate" parameters Gert.
I went and read some documentation and tried changing it around a bit but it
didn't appear to have any beneficial effects at all ?
One thing that I've just discovered that puzzles me is that the OSPF neighbour
drops are only on ONE of the links that come into this 7204. It has neighbours
on the interfaces Fa0/0.3, Atm1/0.2 & Atm1/0..3. It is only the neighbour on
the Fa0/0.3 interface that is dropping, the two connected via ATM are not
dropping at all. Is there any logical reason for this ? Is it because I'm using
the 10/100 port on the I/O module ? Would it be any different if the ethernet
interface was on a PA instead ?
Thanks,
Tony.
