I don't understand - the image is written to disk on DMZ media server right?

How will another media server access this disk that is mounted on DMZ media server?

Changing image ownership alone will not help - you will need to present the physical disk that contains the image to the non-DMZ media server and then change image ownership.

Or else duplicate the image to non-DMZ media server and make this duplicated image the primary. 
Ensure both media servers have SERVER entries for one another and that port 1556 is open between the 2 servers.

Probably easier to provide access between destination client and DMZ media server.

Please tell us why you need to change ownership for one image only? If you have presented storage to another media server, you need to change ownership for media-id that represents the entire storage unit.

Does:

bpimagelist -backupid <backupid> -l    work?

If it does then bpimage -oldserver <old_media_server> -newserver <new_media_server> -backupid <backupid>    should work

 

Edit - no it doesn't I just tried it. you can do -oldserver <old_media_server> -newserver <new_media_server> - that moves ALL the images from the old to the new

Abishek, you are not going to get any better advice than the one above from Marianne. As she says, present disk stu to the 'new' media server or duplicate to 'new' media server stu.
