Statuses of Media, Media Pools, Good, Fair, Poor

		Managing Media
		Checking the Condition of a Medium
Statuses of Media	Media or media pools can have three statuses, based on the media
and Media Pools	condition factors:
	Good.	Less than 80% of the threshold for age or usage.
	Fair.	81 to 100% of the threshold for age or usage.
	Poor.	Exceeds 100% of the threshold for age or usage, or
		read/write errors have occurred on this medium.

See below for information on how to change the media condition factors.
