A signal 11 can be the result of a whole host of things, all of which boil down to a defect in arserverd. If you want to resolve the issue, you need to get an arserverd with debug symbols (debug build), generate a core file, then ship that core file to BMC. It is very likely that the issue is either resolved or will manifest itself in new ways in a later patch.
