The Catalog directive of a Client resource in bacula-dir.conf associates 
that Client with that Catalog for *that* Director.  That is the key to 
the issue AFAIK.

IDEASL You can either run two Directors, each similar to the other, and 
just vary the Catalog entry for each Client.  A given bacula-fd can be 
accessed by multiple Directors.

Or you could create two instances of bacula-fd.conf on the same machine. 
  Then create two Clients for each host in bacula-dir.conf

Of course, I think the simple solution is the one I mentioned regarding HDD.
