During data migration of retention 10 year IMAGES from LTO/3 to LTO/5 I noticed the old IMAGES (2009), written on the tape expires in 2021 and not in year 2019.

I use Netbackup Enterprise Server 7.0.1, and in the version 6.0MP7 it works propertly. I will say I do this migration not the first time.

Example:

1, Take a look an the migrated IMAGE „ myserver_xxxxxxxxxx” from 08/04/2009.

##bpimagelist -U -backupid myserver_xxxxxxxxxx
Backed Up         Expires       Files       KB  C  Sched Type   Policy
----------------  ---------- -------- --------  -  ------------ ------------
08/04/2009 05:51  08/02/2019       17    49760  N  Differential Retention_10Year

Here we see that the IMAGE is written in the year 2009 and expire in the year 2019. This is correct!


2, Now we search the written LTO/5 Tapes:

##bpimagelist -l -backupid myserver_xxxxxxxxxx | grep FRAG | awk '{print $9}'
070725 -> This is a new LTO/5 Tape
20471L -> old LTO/3 Tape ( First copy )
050328 -> old LTO/3 Tape
061454 -> also a new LTO/5 Tape


3, Take a look on the expire date of the tapes

##bpmedialist -m 070725
Server Group = UNRESTRICTED_SHARING_GROUP

 id     rl  images   allocated        last updated      density  kbytes restores
           vimages   expiration       last read         <------- STATUS ------->
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
070725   7     71   09/11/2011 12:02  09/15/2011 00:11  hcart2  2782457576     0
               70   09/11/2021 05:22        N/A         FULL ENCRYPTION

##bpmedialist -m 061454
Server Group = UNRESTRICTED_SHARING_GROUP

 id     rl  images   allocated        last updated      density  kbytes restores
           vimages   expiration       last read         <------- STATUS ------->
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
061454   7     82   08/21/2011 00:25  09/14/2011 20:14  hcart2  1927440342     0
               81   09/11/2021 05:20        N/A         FULL ENCRYPTION

We see that the expire date of the LTO/5 Tapes is in the Year 2021 and not in the Year 2019.

What is my ( or the Netbackup ) problem ?
