With regards to functionality, both of schedmodes are equivalent. But there
are some arguments in different environments which prefers any of these
modes.
Schedmode pooling is better for example for clients, which are not up
allways at their backup the time. Server then didn't try to get them and
I think Prompted works better and is more reliable.
Then again some else might have have another opinion.
