Core Issue
Unable to to configure an Secure FTP (SFTP) Backup Storage Location to back up the Cisco CallManager 5.x.
Resolution
Complete these steps in order to configure the storage location:
- Choose an FTP software. This software is available on the web for free. One such example is freeFTPd.
- Choose the correct port, port 22, for the SFTP.
- Secure Shell into the Cisco CallManager command line interface and issue this command:
file get tftp
It asks for the IP address of the SFTP server, port, user ID, password, and the directory. Make sure / is used as the directory. It downloads the file to the root directory that is specified in the freeftpd program for SFTP.
