The one that didn't run was the *first* path in the list.....
MPX set to 1, 2 jobs per policy, multistreaming on, 2 drives connected.

I just changed the order of home and apps in the list (just to "touch"
the policy)
Then I fired off a manual on the policy (didn't specify full or inc) and
all 4 streams fired up for FULLs..../vol/vol1/nfs/home and
/vol/vol1/nfs/apps went active, and /vol/vol0 and /vol/vol1/windows
queued.

Odd, but it seems ok now.
