Also, you might run into a conflict with using both maximum volume
jobs *and* maximum volume bytes at the same time; I've never tried
that but I think it might confuse bacula a bit about what you really
are trying to achieve. 

We run a similar setup to yours (online backups to disk with one job /
volume), but we're copying the client's "full" volumes to tape monthly
for offsite storage. Depending on your number of clients, I'd
recommend creating separate pools, storages and media types for each
client so you'll be able to run parallel jobs.
