Remember that a disk device acts just like a tape drive meaning that
for a single device you can not load 2 volumes at the same time. If
you want more than 1 job to run you need more than 1 storage device.
If you plan on adding additional clients and want them to run more
simultaneous jobs I recommend that you search the archives for bacula
vchanger. This will make disk storage work like a virtual tape
autochanger with multiple drives so you can have concurrency.
