Backup Hangs

I have two server setup. One is production second is backup.
I have successfully installed XSIBackup on both and credentials is ok
I run this on production for moving backup to 192.168.22.121

./xsibackup --backup-point="192.168.22.121:22:/vmfs/volumes/121_SATA/backup/"  --backup-prog=onediff --backup-type=custom --backup-vms="_ON_VHP_SSPRO" --mail-from=vm@
xx.com --mail-to=xx@gmail.com --smtp-srv=xx.com --smtp-port=465 --smtp-usr=vm@xx.com --smtp-pwd=xxpass --smtp-auth=yes --smtp-sec=TLS

Backup starts, i see output

sending incremental file list
_ON_VHP_SSPRO-000002-flat.vmdk
  5,032,968,192   9%   28.21MB/s    0:28:04
sending incremental file list
 10,760,749,056  20%   27.20MB/s    0:25:41

Makes sometimes 7-50 percent ~ 10-30min and then hangs. If i leave ssh session open it justs drops after some time and backup fails.
At the beginning time and percent changes, but after some time(10-30 min) it just stops changing. If i go to backup location there is some files but not the big one.

Re: Backup Hangs

Pro version adds some "must have" features for professionals, but the core transfer binaries are exactly the same.
It looks like you have some big snapshots (more than one) attached to your VM.
I would start by deleting snapshots and consolidating the Vitual Machine, previous to making a backup of it. Also, enter the user area and get your (c)XSIDiff licenses, then place each on the corresponding server.
In any case, you should be able to backup even without (c)XSIDiff, it looks like if Rsync was running out of memory. Just reboot both hosts if you have the chance and try again.
