A system and method for adding a migration file group to a hierarchical storage management (HSM) system for data co-location are presented. A file group attribute may be automatically added to one or more files in the HSM system to enable one or more applications to co-locate data. The one or more files, having a similar file group attribute, may be migrated from one or more storage devices in a first tier in the HSM system to a tape storage device in an nth tier of the HSM system to enable recalling of the one or more files in the HSM system.
