Hi,
   
I would like to know the command to find the last image to be expired on the  
tape.
 I was using
  bpimmedia -mediaid < > -L
  to find the images on the tape. It gives all the images on the tape. 
I 
 would like to know just the date of expiration of last image, so that i 
can reuse the tape.
 
  when i check couple of tapes even though all the image expiration dates 
are  over, still it is not moving the tapes back to scratch volume pool, 
is 
 there any dependeny on them ???
 
 and command to find the tapes which are vaulted on today ???

  Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions.
