Stop expiring backup

Hi Team

Team has run bpexpdate command by mistake on some set of backupids to expire images and immediately team has created touch file "Noexpire" in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin

I can still see backupids in catalog in GUI...

I want to stop expiring these images. How can we check these backupids are going to expire and how we can stop expinig these images once i remove Noexpire file..

Please help

I'd suggest logging a call very quickly - not something that can be fixed via the forum.

Actually ..

You could try ...

bpexpdate -extend_expired -backupid <backupid> -d <date in future to extend to>

I always forget about the extend_expired option.  I think this came in at 7.7.2 via an EEB, but is there by default on 7.7.3.

Yeh... doing it with help of support engg now... earlier facing issue to logg a case with veritas team due to one issue that fix now.
