remote job failing to run

One remote jobs work and one remote job fails with no logs events.  ?

This job fails:

[root@esx41:/vmfs/volumes/5bc410e3-ae8c84a6-07cf-5cf3fc1d7030/xsi-dir] cat jobs/045
"/vmfs/volumes/esx-data-store/xsi-dir/xsibackup" \
--backup-prog=OneDiff \
--host=10.240.100.45:22 \
--backup-point=/vmfs/volumes/Archive \
--backup-type=Running \
--backup-how=Hot \
--use-smtp=1 \

--test-mode=true \
--remote-xsipath=/vmfs/volumes/esx-data-store \
--exec=yes >> "/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/xsi-dir/var/logs/xsibackup.log"

This job works:

Re: remote job failing to run

Is server 10.240.100.45 reachable at port 22?
Have you exchanged the RSA key via the --link-srv argument with 10.240.100.45?
Is XSIBackup really installed to the folder: /vmfs/volumes/esx-data-store on the remote server?
What do you mean by "no log events"?, are you aware of the fact that the log file will be

xsi-dir/var/logs/xsibackup-10.240.100.45.log
