Using the latest ovftool 4.4.0 (build-15722219) on Linux, having a hard time deploying to a cluster of hosts in vCenter.  What is the current syntax?

$ ovftool win2k16.ova vi://administrator@vsphere.local@my-vc.lab.xyz.com/datacenter-name/host/cluster-name

Opening OVA source: win2k16.ova

The manifest validates

Enter login information for target vi://my-vc.lab.xyz.com/

Username: administrator%40vsphere.local

Password: *****************

Opening VI target: vi://administrator%40vsphere.local@my-vc.lab.xyz.com:443/datacenter-name/host/cluster-name

Segmentation fault

I'm getting this problem with few large size templates but able to successfully migrate other templates which are lower in size using same ovftool command,

Could you please suggest what would be the issue ?
