I mean SMS-managed tapes, and possible entries in DEVSUPxx member, for example default
MEDIA11 =000B
(this is default for JC media, also called EATC)

Question: where the category is recorded?
AFAIR it is recorde in the ATL, that means Library Manager (PC inside the library).
However is it recorded anywhere on z/OS side?
Neither VOLCAT, nor RMM show this value.

Q2: Is there any difference between ISMF.2. (Volume - Mountable tape) information and output from IDCAMS LISTCAT VOLENTRY(Vvolser) ? Of course I don't mean visual aspects, rather source of information. LISTCAT takes info from VOLCAT, what about ISMF panels? Is there any complementary information, i.e. recorded in SMS CDS?

Q3: What is the purpose of volume categories? Is it specific for just z/OS (mainframe systems) or it is something widely used by ATLs? Is there any table describing default categories including media JD and JE or it does not make any sense, because this media is not supported in z/OS? (note: JE media is for TS1160 which is not supported in z/OS neither directly, nor as VTS backend)
