Hello! I would to setup a enviroment, where i need a outhouse backup. My idea is, to use 2 USB-HD's in a daily change.
Is it possible to put the (/var/lib)/backuppc directory completely on each of the usb disk and use them in a daily change? For example: Monday at 17:00 someone removes USB1 with USB2. USB2 ist the base for Tuesday-Backup. Wednesday USB1 again goes in action. It's clear, that from day to day a "double" effort for diff/full backup is needed, but i think it must be possible: USB1: Mon->(Tue)->We->(Thu)->Fri USB2: Tue->(We)->Thu->(Fri) The goal is to have always a complete, working BackupPC-Base out-house with a max. loss of one working-day. At my guess it must be possible. USB2 on tuesday doesn't know that there was already a run at monday (USB1) so it get the diff between friday and tuesday. I could make a testing enviroment but perhaps some could clear me easier if this is a practible solution.
