I need to utilize the throughput of two devices hence I reckon I don't have a choice but to assign different jobs to different devices. Please correct if my statement is wrong.

BTW, This configuration allows you to run your jobs to the autochanger
resource where bacula will choose what drive to use or you can run
jobs to each tape drive and still have the autoloading functionality.
For the most part I use the autochanger resource and let bacula
decide. However if I need to do some manual operation I usually force
it on an unused tape drive.
