Greetings!

 I'm trying to use bpexpdate to extend the expiration dates of duplicates I 
have made to send offsite (month-end, year-end, et. al.). However, I'm getting 
"requested media id is in use, cannot process request" errors, both in the 
script and at the command line.

Here's the syntax I'm trying to use:

#  /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpexpdate -ev MM1069 -d 03/01/2002 
12:00:16 -force

It gives the same error if I try to do it by image name as well.

The tape is in the robotic library, I can see it in the Media & Device Manager, 
and is in the proper Volume Group.

Any ideas?

Regards,
