Re: [BackupPC-users] Offsite copy

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

This isn't really a solution for me.

My intention is to have a working copy of the latest snapshot at any on time so that in the event of a disaster I can simply drop it in place.

Therefore a one to one rsync type snapshot is what I'm after.

If I could access the latest version/snapshot as I would when using the fuse module (That unfortunately doesn't work as it's buggy) and rsync that off-site that would work for me.

For a physical solution to this, I use a removable drive cartridge. Once a week
I rsync the whole backuppc file system (/var/lib/backuppc) onto an encrypted
volume stored on the removable drive, then carry the removable drive off-site. I
rotate three removable drives: one in the drive bay, one on the shelf for the
next use, and one (the most recent) always stored off-site.
