All, 

Recently I've made changes to my bacula-dir and bacula-sd to with the intent of 
running simultaneous jobs.  After the changes my testing seems to indicate I 
still don't have it right.  I launched my first job 'Image_Backup' manually 
with it's default priority, then launched the retail job modifying the priority 
to 1, with the hope to force a simultaneous backup.  The retail job sat waiting 
for the image job to complete. I've attached the relevant sections from my 
bacula-dir.conf.  If anyone has any helpful thoughts I'd really appreciate it.
