Where are you issuing the command from? Personally I would run from the master 
and use the -h switch, reason for this each media server keeps a separate copy 
of its on media DB. So you would need to specify which host to expire the 
media. Pre NBU 6 of course.

The other option is that it could have be deassigned somehow from the volDB 
however still have a copy in the media servers mediaDB.

Regards

Dave

Can you see the media from the GUI (at the media section)?
If no, you have to recreate the voldb. Email me to send you info.

If yes, are you running the commands form a media server? 
If yes, run them with the -M master_server option or run them form the master 
server

Hi all,

I'm having trouble with the VolDB on one of my media servers and wonder if 
there's a solution.  I am getting the following errors when trying to expire 
media...

  bash-3.00# bpexpdate -m 0081L2 -d 0
Are you SURE you want to delete 0081L2 y/n (n)? y could not deassign media due 
to Media Manager error bash-3.00# vmquery -m 0081L2 Could not query by media ID 
0081L2: volume does not exist in database (35)

Is there a documented process for recreating the VolDB?

Thanks in advance.

Bob
