Haven't been able to reproduce since I upgraded to 11.2-U4.1

Any updates ?
On my end i have not been able to reproduce the issue.

Okay so that is fairly easy ( setting up rsync over ssh ), i am not so sure how you are managing the differing permissions, but setting up the share task itself is easy. I would recommend you follow the docs for this which offer excellent advice on how this should be accomplished ( https://www.ixsystems.com/documentation/freenas/11.2-U4.1/tasks.html#rsync-over-ssh-mode ).
Meanwhile i am making sure that we have not left an option on how we could reproduce this.

To tell you the truth, I don't remember.
I have 2 rsync tasks on the machine, one rsync-over-ssh to localhost, the other rsync-using-modules to a synology machine.
This is my first time setting up rsync-over-ssh on freenas, and I had trouble setting it up (and it is a bit more complicated, since it is rsync-ing a share with linux permissions to a share with windows permissions). There was no need to debug the rsync-using-modules method.
I still don't have the rsync-over-ssh job working. Just tried a manual run again. Didn't do anything, but no core dump message in /var/log/messages (that's on 11.2-U4.1). Obviously, I need to do more debugging.
Maybe keep the issue open until I figure out how to get this rsync working?

Thank you for responding. I'll walk around a bit more making sure that i am not missing anything and if still we don't have a reproduction case, i think we can mark this as closed.
However can you please confirm if this only affected one task ?
And if yes, was there something different which was configured for this task wrt module, path, options perhaps ?
Created an rsync task with rsync-over-ssh to localhost. ssh keys are set up correctly, and tested from command line.
When I run the task manually, the task exits prematurely, and the only thing I see in /var/log/messages is:
May 1 22:58:42 nassie kernel: pid 27566 (python3.6), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped)
Another task with rsync modules works fine.
