Hi there,

I just noticed that (for disk backups) by

1. (director) specifying multiple "Device = " lines in the "Storage" section 
that
   is referenced by a given (single!) Pool and
2. (storage daemon) setting "Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1" per device

Bacula does perform a true parallel backup - writing at most one job
at the same time to a volume, using as many (disk) volumes as there
are devices available.

First, is that working as intended, and second, does that eliminate
the need for virtual disk changers and data spooling for disk backups?


Thanks
Stan
