CASO command line

I have a CASO server with 5 managed media servers.
My backup jobs were configured on the CASO server.
When logging into one of the managed media servers, only the job history is displayed, not the scheduled jobs.
 
I use the command line utility to generate reports on the backup jobs.
I use BEMCMD –o506 to get all the job info, which I then filter.
My problem is that I want separate reports for each media server.
If I use –c”mediaserver”, I don’t get any results (return value -1).
How can I run the command and target jobs on a specific media server?
 
Any help would be appreciated.

With BEWS 12.5 (CASO) I just

With BEWS 12.5 (CASO) I just tried
BEMCMD -cMMSServer -o506 >MMS.txt
and
BEMCMD -o506 >CASO.txt

and did not get a -1 result and additionally also received different job lists in the output so it does appear to work.
Note: I did not put the servername in quotes after the -c - just immediately followed with no quotes and I used the NetBios name, not the FQDN

If you still get -1 when you run it then try
BEMCMD -v -cMMSServer -o506
To get  a verbose output (note the -v  must come first - i did get a -1 status when I had the -v following the -c command - which means the order of the switches can cause a problem too)
