ZFS (or possibly drbd) may be the only reasonable way to replicate the
BackupPC data pool. you do *not* want to try backing it up on a file level
(with tar or rsync). There's just too many hardlinks.

The best way to have a offsite backup is to set up a duplicate BackupPC
server, and have it back up all the machines the first BackupPC server is
backing up. Yes, this means duplicating your backups; but on the bright side
it means you have a completely independent backup arrangement which may save
you if something fails in the first one.
