I'm not familiar with the dmsc utility, but I assume you want something like:
Code:
ssh testserver01 dsmc q b '${ARCHIVE_DIR}*' -sub=yes -querysummary -inactive -fromd='${BACKUP_DATE}'

assuming that you want $ARCHIVE_DIR and $BACKUP_DATE to be expanded on testserver01 rather than being expanded on the local machine and sending the expanded strings to be processed on testserver01. If you want the variables to be expanded on the local machine, change the single quotes above to double quotes. If you want the variables to be expanded on the local machine, but the expanded results need to be quoted on the remote machine, try:
Code:
ssh testserver01 dsmc q b "\"${ARCHIVE_DIR}*\"" -sub=yes -querysummary -inactive -fromd="\"${BACKUP_DATE}\""

You haven't given us any indication of how these variables would be set in either environment.

gnome-ssh-askpass

GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)					      General Commands Manual					      GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)

NAME

       gnome-ssh-askpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-ssh-askpass

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-ssh-askpass  is  a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH.  It is intended to be called by the ssh-add(1) program and not
       invoked directly.  It allows ssh-add(1) to obtain a passphrase from a user, even if not connected to a terminal (assuming that an X display
       is  available).	This happens automatically in the case where ssh-add is invoked from one's ~/.xsession or as one of the GNOME startup pro-
       grams, for example.

       In order to be called automatically by ssh-add, gnome-ssh-askpass should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables are recognized:

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_SERVER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the X server before asking for a passphrase.

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_POINTER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the mouse pointer using gdk_pointer_grab() before asking for a passphrase.

       Regardless of whether either of these environment variables is set, gnome-ssh-askpass will grab the keyboard using gdk_keyboard_grab().

AUTHOR

       This manual page was written by Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> for the Debian system (but may be used by others).  It was based on that
       for x11-ssh-askpass by Philip Hands.
