Dave,
     Check the re-use delay parameter on the copy group first and then
check to see if these tapes are actually empty.
You can manually expire them by deleting the data.

Subject:  ADSM ver 3 Tape Expiration


I am new to this list, but wanted some insight into a problem I've having.
I'm also very very new to ADSM....learning as I go.   It got threw into my
lap....the boss said..."here, learn this!".   :o)

I am no longer getting tapes to expire from the Vault.   Bear with me here.
The expiration is set to 14 days but I've got tapes in the vault that are
from years ago.   These volumes are assigned to the copy_dbdaily_pool
storage pool.    How can I get these volumes to expire?   Can I manually
expire them?

Dave
