AOS 8.5 - Copying flash file to SCP server

    Posted Apr 21, 2020 12:35 PM

    When copying Backup from our MM (VMM) using WebUI we are able to specify file path to the folder on SCP server. However, if using CLI this doesn't seem to exist. Is there some way to specify that I just didn't see (command used was "[mynode]#copy flash: <file_name> scp: <scp_server_ip> <username> <destination_file_name>"?

     

    Secondly, is there any specific reason that when specifying SCP server we can use only IP address, and not hostname? We are using balancer with geolocation that picks nearest SCP server and delivers file, and having to configure only one hostname (instead of different IP for every reagion) would simplify maintenance. Thanks.

    For the destination filename, try to use the full absolute path ( e.g. /tftpboot/files/default.cfg).

    Hi,

    I can confirm that full path as filename has worked. Thanks.
