i'm using a simple procedure i cooked up to maintain a "third copy" at a
third physical location using as little bandwidth as possible. it simply
looks at each pc/*/backups, selects the most recent full and most recent
incremental (plus any partial or /new), and copies them across the wire,
together with the most recently copied full&incremental set (plus any
incompletely copied sets), using rsync, with it's hardlink copying
feature. thus my third location has a copy of the most recent (already
compressed) pc/ tree data, using rsync to avoid copying stuff over the wire
that's already there (and not bothering with the cpool), which, for me, is
a happily sized set of hardlinks that rsync can actually manage (ymmv). i
have successfully used this together with a script to recreate the cpool
if/when necessary. if it's of interest i could share it.
