Networker is reasonably flexible with dates - take a look in the Command Reference Guide under nsr_getdate to see what Networker will understand. My suggestion would be to keep your dates as unambiguous as possible, rather than write 04/05/11 or 05/04/11 write your date as "4 May 2011". So your save command would be something like:
save -s backupserver -b backup_pool -w "28 February 2011" -y "28 February 2099" c:\temp

I mean, the data can be recovered after three days ,what should i do?
This is a cyclical process, not a one-off.

If you are doing this regularly you would usually set up a scheduled backup and assign browse and retention policies. I suppose you could use a local scheduler and run something like:
save -s backupserver -b backup_pool -w "3 months" -y "2 years" c:\temp
However it is better to centrally manage scheduling from the Networker server and this will also ensure you get your indexes backed up too. (I've only worked with one company who didn't use the Networker server to schedule backups and that was because they scheduled everything centrally with Autosys).
