Backup won't Schedule - Server 2003

[Guest]

Backup will perform manual backups flawlessly on 4 mm Tape. When I try to schedule Daily backups using any available tape and erasing existing backups I get the following error in Reports: cannot locate the specified
media or backup device. Any Help would be appreciated.

Make sure you're using the /UM switch and specifying the correct media pool.

The article listed below discusses how to schedule an unattended backup. The
article was written for 2000 but the switches still apply for 2003.
