I want to setup migration and need some thoughts on the best way to configure 
things in order to achieve what I want.

I have a backup server running bacula 2.4.4. It runs backups over the network 
for 9 different servers and stores them to hard disk. I run a single full 
backup once a week and differential backups every night the rest of the week in 
a 7 day cycle.

This is fine, but now I would like to migrate my backups to tape and store the 
tape off-site each day. My thought is to move the hard drive backups to a 
single day cycle and use the tapes for a 14 day cycle. That way I never have to 
worry about disk space as there is always only a single day of backups stored 
on the disks. This also means that the previous nights backups are stored 
securely off-site as soon as they are migrated to tape.

So basically what is the best configuration for doing this? My biggest 
challenge is configuring the Pools/Volumes/Jobs in a layout that is ideal for 
this setup. How should I approach that? Or should I be taking a different 
approach to this?
