Parallel Restore is possible from the GUI. By selecting multiple objects in the restore context, all of them will be restored in one single session. If multiple objects are located on the same medium then they will be restored by loading the media only once.
But did you know this is also possible from command line? The omnir manual page actually indicates that multiple objects can be specified one after the other. There is also an example (#4) shown in the manual page.
Here is a full example including the session report.
