It's going to take some searching but since you used ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES, this
drive should be it's own specific backup image name, right?. If you search
the catalog manually, it's under /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images in unix, you
should be able to identify the image name then expire that image with
"bpexpdate -d 0 -backupid <bpid>"

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Getting NetBackup to forget about a drive?
We have nearly all of our servers set up with the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES
directive. On one of our servers, though, when we replaced one of our disk
volumes, we temporarily had an extra drive H: attached to the system and
backed it up as part of our quarterly backups. That didn't really cause any
problems, except for one: now the default search selects backup tapes going
back several months, looking to get the last backup from this now
non-existant drive.
Is there any good way to get NetBackup to forget about this pesky backup
session? It slows down the browse process.
