Either run a second BPC instance over the WAN directly to the target hosts, or send compressed tar snapshots, whichever is more appropriate for your combination of bandwidth, volume of data, backup time window, number of target hosts, degree of duplicated data etc

I would like to run backup-pc on site and keep a duplicate copy offisite.  So I want 2 backup-pc servers. One onsite and one offsite. With the offsite copy not running, but the data being synced with the onsite copy. If there is some kind of failure with the onsite copy of backup-pc. I could then start the offsite-copy and restore files from there.  

What I have discovered so far is that even if I stop the backupc-service on the onsite server, I  cant keep the offsite server updated  via rsync. the first time I rsync it works fine. But then the next time I do an update, with all new data, deuplication, hand links created and changed on the onsite server, the next rsync  is a total disaster. 

Are there some magic sync settings that will allow me to keep a backup of the backup-pc data by rsyncing it to another system?
