A method includes determining a distribution for a plurality of distributable components within a storage medium library. It is determined that the plurality of distributable components are not currently distributed across the storage medium library in accordance with the distribution. In response to determining the distribution for the plurality of distributable components and to determining that the plurality of distributable components are not currently distributed across the storage medium library in accordance with the distribution, a set of one or more commands to move one or more of the plurality of distributable components to different locations of the storage medium library in accordance with the distribution are issued.
