BE2012 BKF DLM issue, not overwriting, recycling.

I need a solution

Hi, 

I have a big issue about BKF files, It seems that BE isn't doing the DLM o whatever it's called now.

My Backup Exec is with Sp1, HF189571,180964,194470 and 199866; My b2d storage is a Data Domain DD620 with dedup. (not using BE dedup)

I have to enable the view all media (Please, nominate as "cosmic genious" to the one who decide to hide this view in 2012) by following http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH179265

My "keep for" setting for b2d is 1 week for daily, 2 weeks for weekly, 3 weeks for monthy, 10 years for duplicate (Duplicate to tape policy after the monthly backup completes)
 
And then for my surprise I have tons of bkf from 2012 (image001 is just a part) and some of january, by checking the b2d device, there are 3.56 Tb between BKF and IMG from 2012...; If I wanted to see which backup sets they have, there are none listed.
 
Yesteday, I ran an inventory job by now it's 72% complete. Take a look to image002, it seems that there's some information there but by now when clicked on details "no backup sets" (I need to catalog them once the inventory is done) 
 
But by now, I have three questions:

 

  1. I  would like to know why the OPP settings for all the BKF is "Infinite - Do not overwrite"; I review the backups that were executed during the morning and they also are as "infinite - do not overwrite", even when my setting (Keep for) is 2 weeks.
     
  2. There's some way to AUTOMATICALLY purgue all this old BKF ?
    Even if try to right click on those bkf files when I'm on BE;  I can't select "delete", "scrath"; i can only select "associate with media set" (but be2012 will not let you associate bkf files to a specific media set) o "associate with media vault" (Same as before) 
 
 
 

 Thanks in advance.
