Hello Guys, hope you can help. I get the above mentioned message while trying to expire tapes. I've tried different switches but it just comes back with the same message. Switches I tried -
bpexpdate -d 0 -m
bpexpdate -d 0 -m -host
I've tried commands mentioned in this technote but no luck. VMQuery works but I cannot expire tapes from Media and Image databases.

There are hundreds of tapes which are in this state and completely unused.
Any more suggestion will be immensely appreciated.
Aah, btw... I unfroze few tapes and tried expiring the tapes but to no avail.
Thanks,
