Boy is this confusing, not not well documented.  I thought
(apparently wrongly) that the unit of allocation was a transaction.
The first transaction for a session would go on one volume, the
second tran would go on another, the third on still another.  Thus,
one session could spread it's backup data across all volumes.

I'll have to try this on our test system - when we get it working
someday!
