It is very difficult to provide specific answers when there is very little 
detail provided. For example, output from QUERY SCHEDULE F=D for the 
schedule you defined.

In general, it would probably be better to put the command into a script, 
then have the scheduler run the script.

For example:

REM BEGIN SCRIPT
set BACKUPLOG=SysState.log
cd /d "c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient"
echo. >> %BACKUPLOG%
echo 
********************************************************************************
 
>> %BACKUPLOG%
echo %date% %time% Beginning system state backup >> %BACKUPLOG%
dsmc backup systemstate >> %BACKUPLOG% 2>&1
echo %date% %time% System state backup ended with return code %ERRORLEVEL% 
>> %BACKUPLOG%
REM END SCRIPT

On another note, I happened to notice the following from your original 
post:

I do no know why you have your objects specified like this, but in 
general, I would recommend setting the schedule with these settings:

   objects="c: d: e:" options=""

to get full incremental backup processing of your drives.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
