Can disk storage units / disk staging storage units be configured to work
usefully in a storage unit group?

I have 3 media servers each with a disk staging area.  I would like for
backups to go to one, then if full, go to a different one.  The way things
stand at the moment, if the disk staging area fills up on the first server,
backups continue to go to it and all fail with 84.  The equivalent would
work with tape drives.

Ideally, thinking about it, I'd like backups to go to all three staging
areas in parallel, but I can't think how to achieve this.

Disks / Staging areas / SSO is new ground for me so if the answer's "RTFM"
then I'll go and do so :-)

thanks, Phil
