I would next check the logs on the TFTP server to see if that provides a clue. You might get this error message if you supply the wrong path in the CLI command. Check what the root directory for the TFTP server is and omit that in the CLI command (or just try without any path).
Check any firewall in path allows TFTP even though ping is permitted. Also check host based firewall on the server/client.

I do have only 1 IP address on my HP 2530 switch.
I am able to ping IP for TFTP server from switch which is in the network but still getting error.
INV-TSI-HP318# copy running-config tftp xx.xx.xx.xx /home/admin/Network/
TFTP download in progress.
000M Transport error

Hi, if the switch has more than one IP address then you might need to ensure the correct source is used. But if a single IP then host based firewall is a likely candidate. The TFTP incoming hole needs creating on Windows Firewall for example.
When you configure a root on the server you typically omit this from the command on the client (switch). So try with just root once the IP connectivity is established.

Hello,
I am trying to take HP2530 switch running back up and sending it to TFTP server
also I tried to use third party Solarwind TFTP server but getting below errors.
Method 1: Tried third party free app solarwind TFTP server on local machine.(10.74.81.98 my local machine IP and C:\TFTP-Root\config is the path)
unable to ping from HP switch to local machine IP but able to SSH
Error:HP# copy running-config tftp xx.xx.xx.xx C:\TFTP-Root\config
TFTP download in progress.
Error in sending rq message. Exceeded 5 retransmits.
000M Peer unreachable.
Method 2 : Tried local TFTP VM server (IP:xx.xx.xx.xx) path : /home/admin/Network/
Able to ping from HP switch to local VM server IP and vice versa
Error:
INV-TSI-HP318# copy running-config tftp xx.xx.xx.xx /home/admin/Network/

What should i check on both cases. Any guide will be helpful.
