A limitation (which should be documented somewhere...) The solution is to either pick the jobs manually, and start a restore for the set from one storage device first, then run a restore from the second storage devices volumes. Or, alternatively, you can take the bootstrap file you already have, split it in two in this location: FileIndex=320-321 FileIndex=540 Count=7 >>>> split here <<<< Volume="backup-0145" MediaType="File" Device="Disk 1.0" VolSessionId=70 and run two separate restore jobs with the resulting bootstrap files.
