Usually this is caused by backup timeouts.
How long does the device take to output "/export compact"?
Alternatively, can you please check the log file?
("/var/log/unimus/unimus.log" or "C:\ProgramData\Unimus\unimus.log")

the export compact takes quite some time to complete, maybe 2 minutes. it actually hangs up for a good 60 seconds at the ipv6 export.
its a very busy bgp router

The long backup time is the reason Unimus fails the job.
The default non-paged backup timeout is 75 seconds.
You can adjust this timeout:
https://wiki.unimus.net/display/UNPUB/C ... t+timeouts
In your case, adjusting the "max-backup-timeout" will be enough.
Hope this helps!

i have added these lines to the config file
-Dunimus.core.connect-timeout=20000
-Dunimus.core.inter-connection-delay=1000
-Dunimus.core.cli-expect-timeout=30000
-Dunimus.core.max-backup-timeout=120000
im still failing? should I increase the timeout higher?

What is the error in the log file for the job?
