Hey guys

I have a tape that no longer has valid images but shows up as a daily tape with an assigned date in Netbackup. I attempted to bpexpdate the tape but it comes back with “requested media id was not found in NB media database and/or MM volume database”. I attempted to change the volume pool but it comes back with “change pool of xxxxxx failed: cannot change volume pool for assigned volumes (91)”. There is a command that I found online “bpexpdate -ev <medai id> -d 0 -force -host <media server>” and would like to know if this command would work on Netbackup 5.1 MP?  Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks.
