I have used BackupPC over NFS successfully in large scale installations.

Re: [BackupPC-users] NAS / SAN and other storage devices
If you are usig a SAN or NAS, it should look like 'just another disk' to your BackupPC server. So, yes, you can use them. The problem Ihave found is needing the backuppc backup storage to appear as a single file system. I guess you could use software striping across just about any kind of disk images (real disks, external RAID, SAN or NAS based drives) but it would be up to you to ensure redundancy in case one of the components failed (or just became unavailable temporarily).

[BackupPC-users] NAS / SAN and other storage devices
Hi all I am wondering if it is possible to store the backup datas, on non resident devices disks, with Backuppc ? Can I have a NAS or a disk in network wich is not inside the backuppc server ? IF YES where are the informations about those possibilities ? If NOT how do I do when all the possibilities of insides disks are full ? Do I have to add a second backuppc server ?
