    more info

    nbpemreq can only predict or show what is due according to "last backup" data.  At the completion of a schedule, NBPEM will perform the calculation to determine which schedule is next due to run.  This could include retrying a failed job to re-run the currently due schedule, if the job is able to be automatically retried.  Retry Delay and Schedule Backup Attempts are set in the Master Server's Host Properties > Global Attributes.

    nbpemreq -due -date mm/dd/yy can only return the next calculatedschedule.   It will not return the value of the schedule to be run on a specific day.  It will return the next schedule to run between now and the specified date to run.
