bug: runtime error when exporter fetches disk info

[toddatmilford]

I am running:

Copyright (c) 2004-2018 Areca, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
Areca CLI, Version: 1.15.8, Arclib: 373, Date: May 29 2018( Linux ) 
ARC-1882   Raid Controller  PCI

and I get this:

Any ideas on what this is?

Thank you Todd

@toddatmilford Thank you for reporting this bug! Can you run the command areca.cli64 disk info and post the information here?

I've been using the following version of Areca CLI when testing:

# areca.cli64
Copyright (c) 2004-2022 Areca, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
Areca CLI, Version: 1.15.23, Arclib: 384, Date: May 17 2022( Linux )
...

But I've used the exporter on much older versions of the CLI as well without this problem.

Also I have three controllers so I use the curctrl parm
