Ah, thanks for that insight. I knew that I needed all the banks in the
master conf, but I hadn't realized that the sub-confs were such
different beasts. So the sub-confs are basically a single entry:
Runall:
my-unique-vault-name
Definitely quirky though now relatively elegant but that's what I've
come to expect from dirvish. Maybe I'll rename my sub-confs with a
different extension to remind me!

You can have two config files like this:
runall-0.conf
=============
Runall:
bank-0-vault-0
bank-0-vault-1
etc
runall-1.conf
=============
Runall:
bank-1-vault-0
bank-1-vault-1
etc
On even days: dirvish-runall --config runall-0.conf
On odd days: dirvish-runall --config runall-1.conf
But perhaps symlinking is just as easy, or easier!
Cheers, Dave
