+
+A duplicate job in the sense we use it here means a second or subsequent job
+with the same name starts. This happens most frequently when the first job
+runs longer than expected because no tapes are available.
+
+ If this directive is enabled duplicate jobs will be run. If
+ the directive is set to {\bf no} (default) then only one job of a given name
+ may run at one time, and the action that Bacula takes to ensure only
+ one job runs is determined by the other directives (see below).
+
+ If {\bf Allow Duplicate Jobs} is set to {\bf no} and two jobs
+ are present and none of the three directives given below permit
+ cancelling a job, then the current job (the second one started)
+ will be cancelled.
