Export Error

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

Trying to automate the backup of several MT router, I’m experiencing the following error on one node when typing export:

..
set query-interval=2m5s query-response-interval=10s quick-leave=no
/routing mme
set bidirectional-timeout=2 gateway-class=none gateway-keepalive=1m gateway-selection=no-gateway origination-interval=5s preferred-gateway=0.0.0.0 timeout=1m ttl=50
/routing pim
set
#error
#error exporting /routing pim bsr-candidates

The two last lines come after several minutes only and it keeps “hanging” in there.

I don’t use any advance routing (BGP…) so I don’t even use that package at all.
Will try disabling it, but that doesn’t seem like the reason the export fails?

Any clue?

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

MM
PS: After posting this, I saw that the export command eventually completed after these 3 errors are visible:

...
set
#error
#error exporting /routing pim bsr-candidates
#error exporting /routing pim interface
/routing rip
... <continues normally>

Problem is over ssh, this command will timeout and the backup file will be empty except for a failure message.

What version are you running? 5.1 had problems with at least the 400 series of boards hanging on an /export command. Maybe try upgrading to 5.4, or at least 5.2.

I’ve had that problem (though at a different part of the config) in 5.3 and 5.4 on x86 platforms. I have a ticket open for it, but have not heard back in a while.
