Hello,

I am wondering why a few behaviors are so in bacula with regard to  
multiple tape drives:

1. When I do a restore job the only tape drive I'm able to use to  
restore with seems to be the one defined in the job or pool. It seems  
intuitive to me to be able to use the tape drive that is not used  
since the tape drives are the same and use the same media.

2. When attempting to use a new tape for a job I find a similar  
situation is present per above - I try to label a tape in a different  
device (again same drives, same media) in the same pool but it will  
not use that new media I've created.

--

Is there a reason it is so adamant about tying a single tape drive to  
a single pool and trying to use it only? I'd imagine that if a pool  
were tied to a media type then you could use any tape drive that  
bacula knows about that is of the same media type (or at least that  
seems the most intuitive to me).

Very likely I just have something misconfigured. This is a director  
2.2.7 with SD 2.2.4 and clients varying between 1.38 and 2.2.8.

Any help or guidance is appreciated.

Thanks,
- Jesse
