Hello All,

First I would like to apologize for my lateness in summarizing.
Thanks to: Darren Dunham, Tim McMurphy, Larry Kingery and Michael Kientoff.

Original Message will follow but here is what worked as a solution:

1) Use mminfo to find what volumes the saveset that you are interested in is
located on.

2) bpexpdate: -backupid <backup id> -d infinity

Thanks to all.
