Jumped the gun a bit here. It turns out multiplexing was enabled on one of the the storage units on one of our masters but on nothing else. Mystery solved......

Hi,
 
I could be way off here but I've noticed some 'strange' behaviour when kicking off manual clients form a policy.
I don't think we have multiplexing enabled (at least the 'enable multiplexing' box in unchecked on the storage unit) and I'm pretty sure if I run multiple policies, they will queue up (once both drives are occupied by backup jobs). However, I ran a manual backup and selected all 3 hosts from the policy and it seems the jobs were being multiplexed (I had 2 polices running, one with 3 hosts and all jobs [4] in the activity monitor appeared to be running, despite the fact we only have 2 drives).
Is this expected?
 
Cheers,
