This is what my daily schedule looks like for one of our policies:

  Maximum MPX:     5
  Synthetic:       0
  PFI Recovery:    0
  Retention Level: 3 (1 month)
  Number Copies:   1
  Fail on Error:   0
  Residence:       (specific storage unit not required)
  Volume Pool:     Daily
  Server Group:    (same as specified for policy)
      Residence is Storage Lifecycle Policy:     0
  Daily Windows:
        Monday     21:30:00  -->  Tuesday    08:00:00
        Tuesday    21:30:00  -->  Wednesday  08:00:00
        Wednesday  21:30:00  -->  Thursday   08:00:00
        Thursday   21:30:00  -->  Friday     08:00:00

the policy type is STANDARD but the output looks like what you would get for an ORACLE type policy (e.g. automatic full backup schedule etc) - the only way I could recreate that would be to change a policy type from standard to oracle & back again (***EDIT*** scratch that very last bit! In fact scratch it all - can't recreate!) - but that still shows backup windows etc.

I've been using bppllist since version 3.1... Output has always worked the same for me...

For output of schedule info alone:

bpplsched <policy-name> -U

At least we now know what a schedule looks like when nothing is selected in a Calendar Schedule... We never stop learning!
