Rsync is appropriate for backing up mail stores and configurations

I fail to understand why two identical servers in separate locations
doesn't qualify as a backup solution.  Both servers have secondary
backup hard drives with duplicated data and the second server takes the
place of the first if the first is ever broken.   Why is that not
desirable?


I didn't say that's not desirable. I said it is not a backup solution.

As soon as the second server takes the place of the first, where's your backup?


I am curious, what would you do?
