Just to be certain, I kicked off a few OS jobs just prior to the
transaction log backup.  I also changed the Storage directive to use
"Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1" for FileStorage.  This forces only one OS
job at a time.

I would expect the DatabaseArchives_crank-va-3 job (11242) to run before
the queued OS jobs (11240, 11241) but that isn't the case.  I don't know
why this reports the other jobs as a higher priority.  And remember that
these are using *different* storage devices.  The OS jobs use
FileStorage, the transaction logs backup to tape (SDX-700C).


Running Jobs:
 JobId Level   Name                       Status
======================================================================
 11239 Increme  Unix_crank-va-4.2009-03-20_15.39.55 is running
