Thanks for reply.

Yes, I ran three jobs, and I have the same effect. All three has been 
finished OK.

I guess that  "Allow Higher Duplicates" does not work correctly. I saw 
the source code and I guess that if Allow Higher Duplicates is set "yes" 
than actions described in Bacula documentation for this directive do not 
work.

I created a Duplicate Job Control actions diagram. You can see it here:

Here are my steps with three jobs:

*run job=QemuImages storage=UP pool=Paktos priority=15
Run Backup job
JobName:  QemuImages
Level:    Full
Client:   darkstar-fd
FileSet:  QemuImages_FileSet
Pool:     Paktos (From User input)
Storage:  UP (From command line)
When:     2010-01-31 19:18:37
Priority: 15
OK to run? (yes/mod/no): yes
Job queued. JobId=276
*run job=QemuImages storage=UP pool=Paktos priority=10
Run Backup job
JobName:  QemuImages
Level:    Full
Client:   darkstar-fd
FileSet:  QemuImages_FileSet
Pool:     Paktos (From User input)
Storage:  UP (From command line)
When:     2010-01-31 19:18:42
Priority: 10
OK to run? (yes/mod/no): yes
Job queued. JobId=277
