Scheduled task to run inventory failes

Not applicable
I have setup a scheduled task that runs an inventory before the backup runs, this has been working now for over a year and has all of a sudden stopped working. This is the command I run in the batch file...

cd c:\Program Files\Veritas\Backup Exec\NT
BEMCMD -o103 -a"DELL Changer"

the strange thing is it will run after a re-boot but will only runs once, when I run it again this is the error that I get.

C:\Program Files\VERITAS\Backup Exec\NT>BEMCMD -v -o103 -a"DELL Changer"

Backup Exec Command Line Applet version 10.1.5629.
