If you are on NBU 6 consider a couple of possibilities.
There are some things that require you to have both short and

If you look at the tape with vmquery, does it have an Assigned date?
Yes.
Are you confusing volume expiration (tape age, visible with vmquery) with
image expiration (visible with bpmedialist)?
I don't think so. I initially
