since I upgrade percona xtrabackup to 2.1.3.
My node is crashed and I have this error in my log :

07:53:55 UTC – mysqld got signal 11 ;
This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed,
something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
Please help us make Percona Server better by reporting any
bugs at http://bugs.percona.com/

key_buffer_size=52428800
read_buffer_size=131072
max_used_connections=13
max_threads=2002
thread_count=6
connection_count=6
It is possible that mysqld could use up to
key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 4432877 K bytes of memory
Hope that’s ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

where mysqld died. If you see no messages after this, something went

in an another environment I have three nodes on VM with percona-xtrabackup-2.0.7-552.rhel6.x86_64 and it’s working perfectly.

Does this version of xtrabackup backup of used pages only?
We use xtrabackup_55 version 2.1.3 and basically copies entire database to another folder, and us later we run tar+gzip to save space.

Is there any change of this supporting the hotbackup interface for when you are using the percona-tokudb engine?
