Issue creating scheduled snapshot

[carl_t]

Hi All

I have having issues creating a scheduled snapshot of my management server, I am getting the below message

Apr 6 09:29:03 2022 MNGMNT-01 logger: snapshot : failed to connect to remote server. Please validate connection
Apr 6 09:29:03 2022 MNGMNT-01 scheduled_snapshot: set_binding: Failed to set binding : error = Failed to connect to remote server. Please verify connectivity and path on the remote machine ; val=(nil)

The commands used were below

set snapshot-scheduled settings snapshot-name-prefix CHECKPOINT_MGNT description SNAPSHOT target scp path / ip 172.x.x.x username xxxx password xxxx

any ideas why it is failing?

cheers

Can you perform an scp from the command line to the same server with the same credentials and does it work?
Also, what version/JHF is this?

Based on the error message, clearly does not like something about path on the remote side...can you try different directory?
