Vault Duplication between media servers

I am setting up a vault profile to read images backed up to disk on one media server and duplicate those images to tape on another media server in the same building. It is not working, and am looking for insights on setting this up.

You need to use bpexpdate with '-copy <copy_number>' :
bpexpdate: -backupid <backup id> -d <mm/dd/yyyy HH:MM:SS | 0 | infinity>
             [-client <name>] [-copy <number>] [-force] [-nodelete] [-notimmediate]
             [-M <master_server,...,master_server>]

Since your original post was for VAULT duplication - please elaborate on what is 'not working'?
Please post a screendump of the 'Choose Backups' tab as well as Duplication tab of your vault profile.

Sorry that I missed your reply. I ended up using a script I had written to copy backupids from tape to tape to get this accomplished. Now I need to expire the copy on disk and keep the copy on tape. Want to make sure my commands are correct to accomplish this. Please advise.
