Hi,

according to the manual, you need to create more devices for concurrent
backups to disk since Bacula regards everything as tapes, so a single
Device  will block until each individual job to it is finished.
I'm a little unclear on what new sections I need though, presumable a
number of 'Device {}' sections in bacula-sd.conf (or one per job if I
absolutely want to be able to do concurrent backups of any combination of
jobs, right?), but do these need to have unique Names, Media Types, and do
I need one new 'Storage {}' section for each of these in bacula-dir.conf?
Can these have the same keys for communication?

Or am I off base and can I just add new 'Archive Device' lines in the
Device {} section of bacula-sd.conf instead and create symlinks to the
directory I'm backing up in?

BTW, a number of my questions regarding using VSS, OpenSSL encryption and
rescue CDs has gone unanswered, does noone have experience with these or
have I offended someone? I'm trying to Google and read the manual as much
as possible before giving up and posing the question here, if the answers
are in the manual a reference to the chapter would already help a lot.
