I recently adding a disk storage unit so I could do a Hot Catalog backup test, the disk path was nfs mounted on another server (/mnt/nfs). The Hot Cat backup work fine and I was able to use it fine for my testing. After the test I removed the Storage unit from the policy and then deleted it from the Storage units.
I now have a problem that it is always looking for the storage unit with /mnt/nfs.
I can see when searching the catalog it is still in there and I have tried bpexpdate but it gives me a "media open error"
./bpexpdate -backupid vsnnbu_xxxxxx -d 0
So does anyone know how I can force it to remove this Disk Storage unit and the path that is looking for, because they no longer excist?
Thanks

Does the nfs folder still exist in /mnt? If not, try to create it and retry.
If it still fails, try:
bpexpdate -backupid vsnnbu_xxxxxx -justimage -force

I recreated and mounted the nfs path. I still get the same result it fails with can not open media error in the Catalog console.
The command line also did not work.
I guess I will have to open a call for this, but thank you very much for your help

The correct syntax was
bpexpdate -backupid vsnnbu_xxxxxx -d 0 -justimage -force
Thanks for the help!
