LMS 3.2 on Solaris 10 - Cannot tftp vlan.dat to server

Question

Hi All,
I've read several posts and could not find one that would resolve my issue.
I get the partially successful on several switches. I understand that is because of LMS not being able to tftp vlan.dat back to server.
I tried it directly on a switch and the transfer only works if the filename is already created in the tftp directory. Is there a way to change that?
Thanks
Jose Ribeiro

Answer 1

Hi Joseph,
The ciscoworks server has full access to the switch as per below. Neither access nor credentials seem to be the issue here.
I've read a few posts where it was stated the need to create a 'dummy' vlan.dat file so that the device would not show as partially successful on the RME job. Is this the case here? If so this is a very strange solution.
Thanks,
Jose
