Are you running 6.0?  If so, this is a known issue that we've been
working on with NBU engineering for a while - contact support and see if
the newest scheduler is appropriate for you.

Since neither fulls nor incrementals are running right now, when you
create the new policy, just manually run whichever full is due to be on
the safe side.  I believe that it will do the right thing though
(if it runs at all) and pick up where it left off.
