[Veritas-bu] Cleaning Media DB

We occasionally have tapes that don't expire after the retention period is
reached.
We see the following error when running bperror for the previous night:
0957945184 1 4 4 nbdqc 0 0 0 *NULL* bpsched cleaning media DB(s)
0957945184 1 130 16 nbdqc 0 0 0 *NULL* bptm Media Manager error 94, volume
is not in specified pool, host = nbdqc
0957945184 1 130 16 nbdqc 0 0 0 *NULL* bptm Media Manager could not deassign
media id 001031, retaining it in NetBackup database
A bpmedialist on the volume shows:
bpmedialist -mlist -ev 001031
Server Host = nbdqc

MPX 04/19/00 03:32 03/24/00 13:24 EXPIRED FULL
The only way we have found to get this tape back into circulation is to
vmquery - deassignbyid the volume. What causes the tape to enter an Expired
status and how can it be prevented?
Thanks,
