APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The IBM Spectrum Protect Plus SLA is configured to run backups in weekly schedule, like every 4 weeks. For example, the backup job is run on Sep 10th Thursday. After it is finished, next run is scheduled for Oct 8th as expected. Then IBM Spectrum Protect Plus server is rebooted, and next run is automatically changed to a nearest Thursday which is Sep 17th. As a result, the backup is scheduled to run on a wrong date instead of every 4 weeks frequency. Versions affected: 10.1.*
