Usually a "sig 11" means that there are hardware issues.  However there is
an odd occurrence where it is software.  Try the following:

1) Segmentation faults are known to be caused if ulimit settings are not set
appropriately, more importantly the file descriptor and number of open files
setting.

So set ulimit -n <number> ... where <number>= 2000 and run the save command
with -vvv.

2) Also I had an issue on a LINUX client that was getting the same error a
long time ago.  Legato gave me some "Unstripped" binaries that seemed to fix
the issue.  So you could open a case and ask them about it.  You can use my
old case number for reference:

Legato Case ID:  3077829

3) Try running the save command in -D9 mode and see how it runs.  If it
still fails then at least output the Debug level 9 output somewhere to where
you can send it to Legato.

We just started getting the error shown below.

* servername: All 1 retry attempted
* servername: All nsrexec: authtype nsrexec
* servername: All savefs: exited on signal 11

This server has backed up over a year successfully with "ALL" is the SAVE
SET section of the client setup. To work around the issue I manually put all
the mounted filesystems in the clients SAVE SET section. The backups
are working again.   I think it may have sometime to do with the
/etc/vfstab file but I could not see any thing wrong with it. The client is
running Solaris 8 with NETWORKER client 6.0.1 and the NETWORKER server is
6.0.3

Has any one seen this problem before???
