I have, by following other posts on this forum, been able to get all of my Cisco network gear backing up except our 2 Cisco N5K C56128P switches. Both of these throw "Protocol error: Expected control record". The debugging of the imccfgbakdm didn't yield anything of use aside from this same error. The seemingly 3 important lines are below:

The SSH credientials test fine and SSH proxy works as well. Any assistance would be of great help.
Hello,
I hope you are using Automatic backup to capture device configs . Please try to perform manual back-up those two switches and also let me know are you using SCP / or SFTP method to run back up.
Yes they are trying to use auto-backup and that debug output was copied from a manual backup attempt. All of our devices use SCP including the F5s which took some tom-hackery to get working.
Hi,
I sugest you to log a support case with HPE to verfify your firmware and IMC setting
