The DSSU copy will be copy 1.  bpexpdate will let you expire only copy 1 and 
then the tape copy (if it got there) will be promoted to the primary.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Destroyed DSSU

In planning for disaster recovery, I've been examining different situations 
that aren't a complete loss of the NetBackup system. One is where our DSSU unit 
is lost (file system corrupted beyond repair, or whatever). Obviously, this 
leaves you with no images in a location that NetBackup thinks there are some.

Is it a simple matter of using bpexpdate to expire all of the images that were 
on the DSSU? Or will this still not repair the inconsistency with the catalogs?
