You should be able to extend the retention period with the "bpexpdate"
command.  It'll take the media-id as a command-line parameter.

Greetings, all. 

I sent some tapes offsite, and forgot to extend their retention period
(d'oh!). The originals have expired. I imported in all the tapes
successfully, but now I want to extend their retention period (the
retention period is supposed to be a year). 

I tried making dupes, I tried ./bpchangeprimary, I know there must be a
way to either change the retention period of these tapes, or make dupes
of the imprted tapes that have the right retention period.

Here they are in 'available media':

Unix_Monthly pool

MM1186  DLT      TLD      0       48     -       7    
23350011        IMPORTED/MPX
MM1207  DLT      TLD      0       47     -       7    
33429044        IMPORTED/MPX
MM1211  DLT      TLD      0       46     -       7    
35069715        IMPORTED/MPX

Here's a list of the images from the import:

Here are some of the command I've tried:

./bpduplicate -v -dstunit R2D2 -dp Unix_Monthly -Bidfile /dan/schedules
 -L /monthly_ops/logs/MMORA1.import -rl 6 -mpx -PM (where /dan/schedules
had mmora1_1039929416 in it)
# more /monthly_ops/logs/MMORA1.import
08:25:45 INF - found no images or media matching the selection
criteria

# ./bpduplicate -npc 1 -backupid mmora2_1039929424
EXIT status = no entity was found (227)

# ./bpchangeprimary -copy 2 -id mmora1_1039929416
The default starting date for image acquisition is January 1, 1970.
Continue? y/n (n)y
no entity was found
0 images changed.
# ./bpchangeprimary -copy 1 -id mmora1_1039929416
The default starting date for image acquisition is January 1, 1970.
Continue? y/n (n)y
no entity was found
0 images changed.
# ./bpchangeprimary -pool Unix_Monthly -sd 12/13/2002 -ed 12/15/2002
-st FULL
No images were found, nothing changed.
0 images changed.
# ./bpchangeprimary -pool Unix_Monthly -sd 12/13/2002 -ed 12/15/2002
No images were found, nothing changed.
0 images changed.
# ./bpchangeprimary -pool Unix_Monthly -id mmora1_1039929416
The default starting date for image acquisition is January 1, 1970.
Continue? y/n (n)y
no entity was found
0 images changed.

Any ideas?

TIA,
