Greetings-
I have a couple of backup images currently on tape set to expire soon.
I'd like to prevent NetBackup from expiring this media/backup images as
scheduled. I'll need to restore from the tape, and I thought that
preventing the tape/images from expiring would be easier than importing
upon receiving the tape back onsite.
I've tried to suspend the media, but received the following error:
Operation to suspend media failed:
000031: the media is allocated for use(199)
I've also attempted to extend the expiration date on the media with the
following:
bpexpdate.exe -m 000031 -d 09/25/2009 23:59:59
Are you SURE you want to change 000031
To expire on 9/25/2009 11:59:59 PM y/n (n)? y
Requested media id is in use, cannot process request
Is the only solution to import the tape back into NetBackup upon
physical receipt (after images have expired)?
Thanks!
