What date was listed? If it was sometime in the year 2037, that is how infinity is represented in NetBackup. Basically it is MAXLONGINT converted into a date.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup 6.5.5 Policy Retention issue
Hello,
We have an infinite retention policy for all our backups. However we had a restore request for one of the
client and while checking images for that client using bpimagelist, we found out that the image has an expiry date. We went back to policy to find out that retention on the schedule is still showing "Infinity" and the most recent backup copy shows the expiration
date.
Has anyone noticed it before? What can we do to resolve it?
Thanks,
