I have this kind of setup:

sd1<--dir1 -------> client1 <------- dir2-->sd2

At 23:05 dir1 contacts client1 and starts some job, backing up to sd1.
At 23:05 dir2 contacts client1 and starts some job, backing up to sd2.

As both directors and storages are separate, SD and DIR 'maximum concurrent 
jobs'  settings don't matter here.
Anyhow, this setting on all these components is set to 99 :)
