So your config for the changer is the same?

I tried the above config, but bacula started 2 concurrent jobs on the
same _drive._ Both jobs use the same pool. I can't use spooling,
because the jobs are each backing up ~10 TB of data. Spooling would
just take too much time.  So both jobs write to the same tape and I
would like to avoid this.

Different pools for each job maybe?
