Is there any way to configure NetWorker to add new saves to one drive at a time, up to the number of target sessions of the drive or similar? As it is now, load is spread evenly among the devices. This is a problem when you have a few troublesome clients, that have 386 trillion files each, and thus hog each drive with a never-ending save for hours and hours. It would be good if one could somehow get all those slow saves onto one drive.

One idea that I have is to create a dedicated pool for this type of clients, and then locking that pool to only one drive, but that doesn't seem like the most elegant solution..
