None of the SFTP servers that I tried worked, although I didn't try the cygwin flavor of openSSH. I also have not tried the GlobalScape SFTP server which is supposedly Cisco Certified (also it looks like its about $1200 or so with the SFTP module). I suggested to the engineer that she should consider updating the bug detail to indicate this issue could arise with other SFTP packages.

What triggered this issue in the first place was installing Cius firmware packages willy-nilly, so i just removed some of the older *cius* files using the cmplatform page on the particular servers. I got the file size down to about 700MB and the backup worked fine.
