I think you need to read up on 'concurrent jobs'. http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION001430000000000000000 "If you want to run concurrent jobs you should keep these points in mind: * See Running Concurrent Jobs on how to setup concurrent jobs. * Bacula concurrently runs jobs of only one priority at a time. It will not simultaneously run a priority 1 and a priority 2 job.
