Currently, the NDMP images going to a VTL does not expire automatically in 6.5.3 due to a systems limitation. This functionality should work the same way to expire the duplicate images on to the disk when using Disk Storage Unit.
Once the Vault completes the jobs to duplicate the VTL image to a physical image, it should also be smart enough to delete the copy 1 if it is no longer a primary image.

Vault

Vault can only expire disk-based images automatically. For more flexibility you can use SLP's instead of Vault or in combination with Vault.
