Subject: [Veritas-bu] Expiring troublesome tapes
Greetings all,=20
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?=20
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!=20
