Can you please post some information about your system for us? Here are some things that would be useful in troubleshooting your problem:
1) free diskspace and total disk space (df -h /)
2) What kind of hard drive you are using.
3) What you did before this stopped working (change any settings?)
Thanks! We'll get this issue resolved :)

Are there NO backups in your /var/lib/asterisk/backups/ folder? Also, can you please see if the folder /backups/ exists? If so, check inside there, and see if you have backups.
On another note, have you updated any packages on the command line? For example, did you at any point to a yum -y update?
Thanks!

Sorry for confiusion. There are other folders in var/lib/asterisk/backups/ like /var/lib/asterisk/backups/main schedule and a bunch of *tar.gz
Also there are manual backups like /var/lib/asterisk/backups/03042009 and 03042009.tar.gz Yes I can see them. Regarding yum -y update ohhh honestly I don remeber if I did yum -y update. If not should I do?
Cheers,

I ask about the yum -y update thing because it is known to break trixbox packages. DO NOT DO A yum -y update!!! Check your /root/.bash_history file and see if you performed a yum -y update in the past; if so, we may have to get a little dirty fixing it >:D

Regarding HDD we have
02:02.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7899P U160/m (rev 01)
02:02.1 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7899P U160/m (rev 01)

The next step would be to try and uninstall tbm-backup and then reinstall it.
yum remove tbm-backup yum install tbm-backup
See if this fixes it. If this is not the issue you may have deeper problems. It could be anything from permissions (eg: you can no longer write to your crontrab), your crontab may have an issue, or it may be a side effect of the yum updates you have done in the past on your server, in which case you will most likely need to reinstall.
