Kind of... what you want can't work.

First, think of Bacula volumes like tapes. There can only ever be one 
volume active in a device.
Then, I usually don't recommend using volume labels with the client or 
job name or even date - managing the volumes is best done by Bacula, so 
I don't think there is a real need for volume names detailing the volume 
contents.

If you really want volumes with one job per volume and concurrent jobs 
you best use an autochanger with several drives and configure it in a 
way to only put one job onto each volume. This can also be done for file 
volumes using Kerns fake autochanger script, I think.

Hope this helps,

Arno
