Hi Olivier, I know that another Motorola site in the UK has a backup server (not backuppc :o) on each site that backs up both site's hosts. So all six clients are backed up by both backuppc servers. If your network is not a problem you could adopt that aproach. That way you could recover any host data from any backup server. Also, taking one backuppc server down won't affect the remaining server.
