Nb 5.0 mp6 Solaris 9 EMC CDL VTL

Ok here is the situation. We are testing this Emc CDL VTL. We backup
data to the VTL and now need to get the data on the VTL copied to
physical tape and then expire the image on the VTL. We were trying to
use vault to perform the copy but unfortunately it will not expire the
images on the VTL because it thinks the VTL are tapes. I understand that
it will work if it was a DSU and we were copying the data to tape but
since in the eyes of netbackup this is a tape to tape copy it is not
designed to expire tape copies. This I just confirmed with Symantec. SO
I think I need a script that will run copy and expire commands. Is
anyone else using the EMC CDL VTL and has run into this same problem?
Does any have a script that will perform this function?
