Failed to export config (16)

Post by taku » Thu Aug 08, 2019 6:06 am

hi

When "Export CFG" is carried out, an error as "Failed to export config (16)" is output.

image = xrv , config = 20,000 lines.

By the way, if config is 2,000 lines, it's "config exported".

thanks

Create some TFTP server on lab, it can be any linux/windows node.
In the EVE Pro we have docker called server-gui which already has tftp server option.
Connect this node to lab, whatever, but your XR must reach it..
and in classic way like real life use that tftp server for cfg backup or boot.
you can use your own home native PC for it, but then use eve cookbook section 10 to understand how to use cloud interfaces

thank you for your answer.

is it possible to apply configs acquired by tftp to “Startup-configs” using some ways in eve?

because i'd like to use “Wipe” function.

probably your XR router simply need time to load heavy and long config, try read our cookbook about cfg loading timer tune.
EVE Cookbook: 11.3.6
Not all config lines are accepted, especially some https security command lines.
Make sure if your config has enabled logging console!!!

thank you for your answer.

I set "Config Script Timeout" to 900 seconds and didn't also set "some https security command lines".
but a message as ""Failed to export config (16)." was output...
