All my backup jobs spool to disk before going to tape.

I have a small set of jobs that can take several days to complete and it locks 
up the use of the tape drive.  

I would like to have the drive freed while the long job is spooling to disk so 
that the smaller jobs can run.  I realize that there will be some amount of 
extra tape changing between pools.  

I have successfully run multiple jobs together when they use the same pool, but 
when I try to specify different pools I get the "waiting to reserve a device" 
message on the job.  

I am running an older version of bacula - 2.0.3.   Am planning on upgrading 
soon to a later version.

If this was Files, I know that I could create a second Device, but the 
documentation indicates that this should not be done with tapes.

Thanks.

Richard
