We are running NetBackup BusinesServer 3.4 (patched to 3.4.1GA) on Windows
NT.  The one server takes care of all NetBackup services and has drives
directly attached, and the only client being backed up is a Win2K Server
file share.

I have recently combined several classes into one.  The only difference
between original 4 daily classes was the schedule.  The new unified class
has schedules for MON, TUE, WED, THU, with appropriate media pools defined
(overridden).

This worked fine for about a week.  Now the class will not run at all
automatically.  There is no entry in the status window, and I don't see much
in the reports, except this:

2002/04/19      00:49:30        okboneyard      bpexpdate       Error
Could not update media list, file read failed

The class should have started at 00:00:00, so I'm not sure this error is
related.

2002/04/18      23:59:28        okboneyard              Info    scheduler
found no backups due to run
2002/04/19      00:00:01        okboneyard              Info
**************** GOOD MORNING ****************
2002/04/19      00:09:28        okboneyard              Info    scheduler
found no backups due to run

Right now, I would like any hints for where to look for more information, or
any potential gotchas with the multi-schedule class.  FWIW, a manual launch
of the class works just fine.

Thanks,
