When I try to deassign by id it tell me "Could not deassign media ID 08071L:
volume does not exist in database (35)"
Any other ideas?

You could always do a vmquery -deassignbyid
But afteryou do this make sure you delete the tape and then let NBU recreate
it with an inventory robot.  If you don't delete the tape in NBU 5.x you can
end up with 2 media servers writing to the same tape causing data loss.

Is this tape assigned to a media server that no longer exists?

Morning
Have an old LTO1 tape that has not been written to in over 12 months. When I
run the media list it shows this tape 0807L1 expired 29th March 06. Today is
the 30th. The status of the tape shows expired MPX

So when trying to bpexpdate -m 0807L1 -d 0 it tell me it could not deassign
media due to media manager error.

Any tips on how to remove this from the report? Netbackup believes it is
assigned to a volume and I can see it.

The tape is not stored in the library and there will be no need to re-use
this tape in the future Thanks

Regards
