Re: Error code 222 at file signal.c, line 222 | Error description: Signal

The error is being trapped and hidden. Use the command below in the command line and paste the output.

strace /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-DC/xsibackup --replica "VMs(QATESTER,Quickbooks)" "/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/Backup" --test-mode

Backup over IP for speed, local backups are up to 10 times slower.

Re: Error code 222 at file signal.c, line 222 | Error description: Signal

A wrong data type in a printf statement would cause a SEGFAULT in command with increased verbosity only.
This bug was solved in 1.6.0.2.

Re: Error code 222 at file signal.c, line 222 | Error description: Signal

Your build is not from ©VMWare. Our software is only tested with official ©VMWare builds. As per our own experience manufacturer builds may contain arbitrary changes probably due to different reasons.

In any case, please post the job as you used it along with the output, otherwise we can do nothing but to especulate. SIGNAL 11 is a generic exception with no particular meaning.

To save time add --debug-print --test-mode to the end of your job and post the output.
