Dennis,
Easiest way is to write a script to do this, identify the media ids
by using
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimmedia -class <WEEKLY_FULL>
and look for the expires column.
The field 13, is the expiration date and the field 9 is the tape ID,
I think.
Then run the list of identified media IDs thru bpexpdate -ev <media_id>
-d 0.
