The problem has been solved.
Invoking the Media Management GUI to change the expiration date to "never"
enabled
the tapes to be used for duplication.
Thanks to all to all that responded, especially to Marianne.

Check under Media Manager for the properties of these 2 tapes - I think the
'Expiry Date' from available_media might be a hardware expiry date - i.e.
the media is too old; it can't be trusted anymore. If there is an expiry
date in Media Manager change it to 'never'.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Unable to allocate new media for backup?
Hi,
I am trying to duplicate weekly backups to an offsite_weekly volume pool.
I have 12 tapes that are available with zero (0) data written to them.
These were recycled from previously duplicated offsite_weekly copies.
I get following error message:
unable to allocate new media for backup, storage unit has none available
(96)
Duplicate of backup id servername_1019401390 failed, unable to allocate new
media \
for backup, storage unit has none available (96).
Status = no images were successfully processed.
The following is typical of all of the tapes (via "available_media"
command):
vol media media robot robot robot ret size
exp tape
pool ID type type # slot level
MBytes date status
Offsite_Wkly C41872 8MM TL8 0 82 - 0
07/08/02 AVAILABLE
Offsite_Wkly C44148 8MM TL8 0 85 - 0
05/21/02 AVAILABLE
Any thoughts?
Robert
