check the storage unit definitions for max concurrent drives

I've begun monitoring tape drive usage, and comparing it to 'bpdbjobs
-summary' output every X minutes.  I've found that we consistently have
at least a quarter of our drives empty, even during our busiest times,
with many backup jobs queued.  How can I determine why these drives are
not getting used? 
 
Thanks in advance
