    This is a known issue and there is an EEB that is supposed to resolve it, however I've seen mixed results. The issue is when you open the policy and make changes to the scheduling. However, if you don't open the entire policy, you can make changes as you please with no issues. Just go to Policies in the GUI, find the policy you want to change, expand it so you see 'Attributes', 'Schedules', 'Clients' and 'Backup Selections'. Select schedules and it will show you the current schedules if any exist. Double click the schedule you want to edit or create a new one. Click 'Okay' when done and that is all. For some reason the admin console is having issues when you open the entire policy and make changes to the schedules.

    The EEB/ETrack was ET3893300 for 7.7.3. Again, I've seen mixed results with it.

DBA team can't wait.

i created, again, a fresh policy but this time used a different name (previously i kept using same name), used calendar-based scheduling, and it got scheduled as expected.

i will monitor this as i have some more policies to make.

thanks for all who replied.

    well FWIW, this is the first time i've encountered this since the non-Java admin console was discontinued.
