    Please post the command you're using.

    Does the FGT have a route to the target server?

    Test this: can you "exec ping 1x.xxx.xxx.xxx" ?

    Which source IP address is used (for some FGT initiated traffic you can set the source address).

     

    From what I see here (which is quite few information) I'd guess the routing isn't correct.

    Hi thx for the reply..

     

    I am trying to take raw log backup to FTP. The command is as follows. 

    execute backup disk alllogs ftp [xx.xx.xx.xx]:[xxxx] ftp_username ftp_password.

     

    FGT has route for the ftp server and I am able to ping to it. some file were getting copied but files that are situated in vdom-root that files are not getting transferred to ftp. And at the end I am getting error "command failed, error code -1"
