Purpose

The Extract Media Information (EXTMEDIBRM) command adds information about a volume to the BRMS media inventory contents. You specify the identifier of the volume and what is contained on the volume. BRMS records content information only for media already added to the BRMS media inventory, and then only for media whose contents are currently shown as expired. If active contents information for the media already exists, or if the media has not been added to the media inventory, no content information is added.
