I'm sorry but I still don’t understand.

In the baculd-dir job definition you specify the Storage you write to, not the 
device. which is basically the daemon.

In bacula-sd.conf I have one definition of a Storage and two Device definitions.
In the bacula-dir Job definition I specify the Storage, not the Device.
Therefore I cannot choose which device to write to from the list in 
bacula-sd.conf

That's funny, because I believe it's always the storage device you 
point a job (or a pool) to.

The following section is a bit unexpected in a DIR configuration.
I would even say it results in a unusable DIR...

You should put storage resources into the DIR config as per the manual.

By the way: Which version of Bacula is that, and what does a 
configuration check for the DIR report?
