I don't see any reason to change the current behavior. It may be a bit
difficult to get used to it, but the different Max Councurrent Jobs all have
different actions, and none are ignored.
My recommendation is to carefully read the manual, then if you have questions,
please ask on the bacula-users list where they help with these kinds of
problems (support). On this list, we deal only with development issues so we
do not have the same ability to respond to these kinds of problems and
questions.
Best regards,
Kern
