Hi Jan, I will assume you are running BackupPC v3 and want the whole pool synchronized to another host, and the pool has so many hard links that rsync is not feasible. Your options are basically running another, standalone BackupPC server on that other host, or running some fairly heavy block level replication with RAID 1 mirror such as using nbd/drbd in async mode. Look through the list archives to find more discussions on this topic. Even ZFS or btrfs snapshot transfers are possible, but those filesystems are perhaps not as optimal for BackupPC, and that is another topic on its own. If my assumptions were off, there are more options, such as running BackupPC v4 (not yet stable but the pool is easy to rsync), rsync/unison etc. on a small pool, or simply saving backup archives to the other host.
