Re: IMC backup failed 5120 switches
Hello @Amr-Elsayed,
Is switch 5120 name 'Technip'?
It seems backup fails due to timeout.
But I need more information. Can you please collect 'imccfgbakdm' DEBUG level logs.?
Please go to System --> Log Configuration -->imccfgbakdm (Process name) and set log level to 'DEBUG' and repeat the process of backup config for HPE 5120 switch then collect and share log.
Thanks!

Re: IMC backup failed 5120 switches
Hello @Amr-Elsayed,
Can you try to take backup via other transfer mode?
It seems imc cannot find the correct adapter to use.
If problem remains then If possible, can you try to remove HPE 5120 switch from IMC and re-add. It may force it to update the adapter.
Thanks!

Re: IMC backup failed 5120 switches
Hello,
Alternative transfer protocol in IMC could be configured via Configuration Center > Options > File Transfer Mode tab. You can set individual devices to a different transfer protocol - SCP works good out of the box if you use SSH as CLI access protocol. FTP/SFTP require some setup work in advance.
I had a quick look at the logs. It looks like it could be a device issue - maybe a software update would help?
Note the 'device aborted the file transfer':
2021-02-15 12:41:10.127 [ERROR (0)] [THREAD(1040)] [CTclExecutor::exec_impl()] Error occured to exec cmd: C:/Program Files/iMC/server/bin/../../server/conf/adapters/ICC/H3C/H3CCommon/backup_startup_config_tftp.tcl, error message: Device aborted the file transfer. 2021-02-15 12:41:10.129 [INFO (0)] [THREAD(1040)] [CTclExecutor::exec_impl()] Finished. 2021-02-15 12:41:10.129 [WARNING (11)] [THREAD(1040)] [CCLIScriptProcessor::exec_step()] Fail to call m_poTclExecutor->execFile(), will try next command. AdaptName = H3CCommon, DevIP = 192.168.200.53, command script name = backup_startup_config_tftp.tcl.
There was also recently a fix in E0705P10 related to the TFTP server not working properly, but I'm not sure which version you are running.
