do you manually run it on the Monday? & then it fails to run again the following week so you run it again manually & so on & so forth?
With the window open on the Sunday & a frequency set to 7 days, when/if you manually run the job on Monday then it will next be due to run 7 days later i.e. Monday at which point the window is no longer open.
Drop the frequency to less than 7 days - you could even drop it to as little as 5 hours as it looks like your backup window is only open for 4 hours. That'll mean that after 5 hours the backup will be ready to run again when the wwindow next opens i.e. Sunday or whatever.

Hi,
nbpemreq -predict_all -date mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss This will show what NetBackup thinks should run at/by a certain time in future.
You can also check vxlogview to check nbpem, originator id 116, while you're running the the command listed above.
