Hello Brendan,
If you're working with tape libraries, I would recomend you to slightly

I have a Bacula Director 5.2.6 running on Debian 8.1.
To avoid an excessive delay in the backup schedule in the event of
insufficient volumes, I added a Max Wait Time value of 600 (seconds) in
the JobDefs for a couple of clients. Jobs for those clients
subsequently were cancelled immediately u
