q drmedia

[vdrdr]

Just a quick one.
I've just started using DRM to handle copy pools and also full dbbackup tapes.
DRMDBBACKUPEXPIRY=2

When I do "q drmedia" (after I move mountable to vault) I see the tapes containing DBB as both Vault and Mountable status. Is this expected?

Thanks!

Are the DBB still physically in the library? If so, something is not right. If No, then they should not be mountable.

Please list the command you use to offsite the DR Media.

I use: move drmedia * wherest=mountable tost=vault s=dbb remove=bulk.
My full dbbackups are going to a scratch tape every day.
Just before starting with DRM I noticed when I do q volhist t=dbb that every single dbb shows as two entries but on the same tape. When I do move drmedia, one of this entries goes to vault and the other stays as mountable even though it's the same tape and it is not in the library. I tried to repeat move drmedia but those entries stay in mountable status.
