NCM is seeing date change as a change Cisco Nexus 5548

Subject says it all. Every day NCM sees a change in date as a change to configuration. Is there a way to not have that happen? See attached.

Hi mmedwid,

All you need to do is tell NCM to ignore the lines beginning with !Time, adding the details below to your comparison criteria should sort it:

NCM provides a filter which includes some canned strings the filter out time changes when the confiig change report runs. However the NXOS time string is different then what is provided with NCM. If you open the config change report job you will see an option for filters. Add the nexus time syntax to filter it out when the config change report runs.

Hope this helps.

Google sent me here first, maybe this post will help someone in the future looking for why their regex isn't working as expected.
