Well, I do know that jobs from one client can run in parallel.

VSS might prevent that, though. I'm not sure, but I believe it's not
so useful to try and create several VSS snapshots of one volume at the
same time.

If they all should go to the same storage device, you've got to enable
job concurrency there, too. In the global director configuration also,
but that seems to be on already.
What do 'sta dir' and 'sta sd' report when these jobs run but don't
transfer data?
