I don't think there is any need for 2 cleaning media in the library. Usually 
you only need to clean drives every 4 months or above. Normally, the very last 
slot in the box is assigned as cleaning slot. Load a cleaning media in the 
final slot. Configure the library in networker using jbconfig.  once done, use: 

nsrjb -U <no.of uses> -S <cleaning slot number> -j <library name>

to assign cleaning slot. This will allow networker to control the cleaning tape 
usage.

If you assign cleaning slots in the library console, then those slots which you 
mark as cleaning slots will probably not be available to networker after you 
configure the library in the software.
