Actually problem is we have taken cold data base backup for particular server and removed exclude list for all database file systems,then we forgot to add in the exclude list after cold backup completes...

Problem with expiring entire images is that you expire valid, necessary data along with unecessary backup data just because you don't have enough space on the master server??

You can compress images for this client only.
Extract from NBU Commands manual:

bpimage -[de]compress [-allclients | -client <name>]

Yoh could also move and link the data for that client elsewhere - havent checked that out in 7.5 yet but worth checking as you could just move that clients images folder to a drive with more space
