Kern,

Actually, no.  I have three separate SDs, with their own Device entry in
the bacula-dir.conf, running on separate hosts, etc.  Of those, two are
the ones in question, and other than the name, they're identical.  I
only included one example, but there are two like that, other than the name.

You're right, though.  I should've made that more clear.  I apologize
for that.

On top of that, I did have multiple devices per SD, but that's a
separate issue.
