Hi,

i have a Bacula Configuration with one LTO-4 Drive and a LTO-2 Changer
with 2 Drives and 22 Slots.
My Problem is, that i could not start two jobs at the same time which
where running one at the
LTO-4 and the other on the LTO-2 Drive

The status of the dir:

JobId Level   Name                       Status
======================================================================
   134 Full    BackupBacula01.2010-03-19_16.30.00_14 Dir inserting 
Attributes
   135 Full    Load_LTO-2.2010-03-19_16.30.00_15 is waiting execution

And after finishing the first job, bacula starts the second.
There is a different Pool and a different Storage for each job.

I have set the "Maximum Concurrent Jobs" to 20 in the
bacula-dir,bacula-fd and the bacula-sd,
but i think that this parameter is not suitable for my problem.
Any hints?

Thanks in advance,

Marcus König
