So now what do the letters in the second column mean, specifically "a" and
"p"?

I personally don't have any savesets that span (small time guy) but this
seems to make perfect sense to me and mminfo man page seems to agree.
If your saveset is complete on one volume, you get the c
If it spans two volumes, you get an h and a t
More than two, one h, one or more m, and one t.
Quote from the man page...
     "When  the save is completely contained on the
     volume, a c is displayed.  An h is displayed when  the  save
     set  spans volumes and the head is contained on this volume.
     The remaining sections will be on other volumes.   An  m  is
     displayed  when the save set spans volumes and a middle sec-
     tion is  contained  on  this  volume.   The  head  and  tail
    sections  will  be  on different volumes.  There may be more
     than one middle section.  A t is  displayed  when  the  tail
     section  of a spanning save set is contained on this volume.
     Again, the other sections will be on other volumes."

So, looks like no troubles to me in your scneario.
