Re: [BackupPC-users] Offsite copy

As far as I remember you run into problems when rsync'ing a big /var/lib/backuppc directory because of limitations on rsync / memory consumption.

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.
