The command in ur script doesn't work even on the command prompt also for me.
Hope you want to substitute all the instances of
<Policyspace Name="File">
with
<Policyspace><OBJ><Policy>File</Policy></OBJ>

The following works for the above ( on command prompt as well as script)

sed 's/Policyspace Name="File"/Policyspace\>\<OBJ\>\<Policy\>File\<\/Policy\>\<\/OBJ/g' pdosent.xml > pdosent1.xml
