Hi John 

i think that all the Maximum Concurrent Jobs are defined correctly. 

Bacula-dir.conf

Director {                            # define myself
  Name = xxxx
  DIRport = 9101                # where we listen for UA connections
  QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
  WorkingDirectory = "/opt/bacula/bin/working"
  PidDirectory = "/opt/bacula/bin/working"
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
  Password = "xxx"         # Console password
  Messages = Daemon
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 3
}

More info. If i have one running job, and i launch another job to different pool:

 Error: block.c:577 Write error at 0:10 on device "Drive-2" (/dev/nst1). ERR=Input/output error.
 Error: Error writing final EOF to tape. This Volume may not be readable.
dev.c:1745 ioctl MTWEOF error on "Drive-2" (/dev/nst1). ERR=Input/output error.
 End of medium on Volume "LT0117L3" Bytes=645,120 Blocks=9 at 

in other words, when run the second job, the first job volume shows this message and bacula mark the volume to full, try to mount another available volume, and when bacula try to write to the volume, the message appear again. 

In /var/log/messages i get this at same time:

mptbase: ioc1: LogInfo(0x11010202): F/W: bug! MID not found
st1: Error 80000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x8).
st0: Error 80000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x8).
st0: Current: sense key: Unit Attention
    Add. Sense: Scsi bus reset occurred
st1: Current: sense key: Unit Attention
    Add. Sense: Scsi bus reset occurred

You also need to set Maximum Concurrent Jobs in bacula-dir.conf. Again
for the director, storage and client.
