Greetings all,

I've been using the bpexpdate command with all the switches and cannot
solve my problem.  We have 4 tapes, dated in 1998 that I've been trying
to expire, but cannot.  Whenever I try to use the bpexpdate command, the
following message comes up:  "Requested media ID was not found in NB
media database and/or MM volume database".  I did do a report to see if
in fact it was true, and there were no records for the tapes, but they
are still assigned.

Is there a way (or a command) that I can expire the dates?

I have even tried to move them into a different pool, like the scratch
pool, and it states: "Change pool of XXXXXX failed:  Cannot change
volume pool for assigned volume (91)".  Any recommendations?

Thanks for your help!
