So I've been testing in my lab to determine what happens when several
storage units "over subscribe" the available number of drives.

So basically, 3 drives, 2 STUS, each STU configured to use "max 2
drives".

So the STUs are oversubscribed by "1".

It seems jobs won't "queue", but re-try, over and over and over, every
approx 15 seconds, each time throwing a status 134, then "requeuing" for
a couple seconds, then retrying.

Is it possible to get the re-trying job to just "queue" properly and
wait untill there is a drive available?

The behavious right now, seems kind of dirty.

Is this what happens when you have drives shared with SSO?
Ie. Jobs assigned to a given media server behave like this from the time
the window opens, untill a drive is available for that media server?
