BRMS holiday experience

The unattended backup did not run this morning at 4am.  BRMS halted it
because it was looking for Monday's tape ("MON001"), not Tuesday's tape
("TUE001").

I checked from home on Sunday to ensure that:

1) the job scheduler job was set to skip holidays (it was)
2) the operator had loaded the correct tape Friday night (which is Tuesday's
tape, which she did load).

No backup attempt took place Monday (correct) but this morning BRMS was
looking for Monday's tape.  Is this because MON001 was the "oldest" tape,
even though MON001 and TUE001 were both marked as expired?  How do I get
around this?  Do I have to set the exp date on the one I want skipped
(MON001) so BRMS doesn't look for it?

Thanks.
