Hello,

I checked log files and found out that 
bpdbm processes are being used by bptm process
which expires media. bpsched starts bptm -delete_expired
every minute and it fails. Running bptm -delete_expire manually 
gives no error. Checked bptm and bpcd log files and found no clue there. 

Here is some messages from bpsched log file:

13:42:51 [717] <2> clean_media_dbs: initiating bptm -delete_expired on uback1

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
