Cindy,
Do you get the same results with the quiet removed from the dsm.opt file?

QUIET
 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    Use the QUIET option to keep messages from being displayed on your screen
    during ADSM processing.
    For example, when you run the INCREMENTAL or SELECTIVE command, ADSM
    displays information about each file it backs up. You can use the QUIET
    option if you do not wish to view that information.
    When you use the QUIET option, certain error information still appears on
    your screen, and messages are written to log files.
    If you do not specify QUIET, ADSM uses the VERBOSE option by default.
    Supported Clients
    Clients that can use this option: All.
    Options File for UNIX Platforms
    For UNIX clients, this option goes in the client user options file.
