A media class grouping is a media management tool that segregates 

media into classes. Membership in a media class grouping is exclusive, so 

media can belong to only one class grouping. Media class groupings are 

restricted to one type of media. Valid media types are Clean, Data, and 

Migrate.
For example, LTO media cannot belong to a media class grouping that 

contains AIT media. When media is initially imported into the SNSM, it 

enters a media class grouping. Import mapping to media class is 

automatic and driven by media type. 

From the SNSM home page, choose Reclassify from the Media 

menu. The Reclassify Media

 

screen appears.
