Netbackup cleanup job pass with code 0 but no images has been deleted

hi,

recently i manually expired somes images, to freeup a QUANTUM Appliance.

so when i did it, and the cleanup job passed successfuly, i got this message in  the activity monitor of this job :

05/10/2017 16:51:57 - Info bpdbm(pid=5561) image catalog cleanup          
05/10/2017 16:51:57 - Info bpdbm(pid=5561) Cleaning up tables in the relational database      
05/10/2017 16:51:57 - Info bpdbm(pid=5561) deleting images which expire before Thu Oct  5 16:51:57 2017 (1507215117)
05/10/2017 16:52:21 - Info bpdbm(pid=5561) deleted 0 expired records, compressed 0, tir removed 0, deleted 0 expired copies
the requested operation was successfully completed(0)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

i don't know why this job can not find the expired images ?

when i type "nbstlutil list -backupid XXXXXX -U", or "bpimagelist", i find that the image is no longer there.

how can i check if the cleanup is able to freeup the disk space ? and need to understand please, why the job show's : deleted 0 expired records, compressed 0, tir removed 0, deleted 0 expired copies.

 Thanks in advance.

Always best to post product-related queries in the relevant product forum (NetBackup in this instance).

As you have noticed - the Partner forums do not attract a lot of interest (certainly not NetBackup users).
