Hi,

After setting SCHEDMODE POLLING for this client everything run fine
(HINT :
The default for "Queryschedperiod" is 12 hours. Set it to your
requirement)

That's a good idea. I'll try setting the schedmode to polling and see if
the backup is running.

This really seems to have solved my problem :-)
Thanks to everyone for their help.
After running the backups with "dsmc sched" and schedmode set to
prompted for years, I didn't know that I had to set the schedmode to
polling when I use dsmcad. The client manual isn't very clear on that topic.
