I'm trying to use Kron to backup the config on some of my switches automatically. When the schedule runs, it just writes a 0KB file and the process just sits there.
Here's my config:
show run | begin kron
kron policy-list Backup
cli show run | redirect tftp://10.1.10.250/config.cfg
kron occurance Backup at 12:30 Wed recurring
When I do a show proccesses cpu I get this:
PID Runtime(ms) Invoked uSecs 5Sec 1Min 5Min TTY Process

My TFTP server that's running shows this in the logs:

If I run this command manually from the switch, it works. It takes a minute, but it works.
show run | redirect tftp://10.1.10.250/config.cfg
