One way to get multi-restore to work is to collocate on filesystems in the tape pool. If one collocates to the node then the problem that your discussed happens. This is a designation of the pool so all nodes going to this tape pool will be collocated by filesspace and that can eat a lot of tapes

In order to have multi session "simultaneous" restore from tape pool then you must have this data in a pool that has collocation by filespace. If you have a big enough disk pool such that if you did a restore before migration had moved the data, then a multi session restore would use the disk pool
