Hi Winston,
Thanks for the advice.
No, I mean 3 copies of the (Level 1, 2, etc) backup, as per
https://www.techtarget.com/searchdatabackup/definition/3-2-1-Backup-Strategy
(for example) :-)

Assuming your alternate off-site media is tape, I would recommend
looking into amvault. That's true archival; if you want "live"
alternate off-site, then I'd go with (2). I'm not sure what you mean
by 3 backups, though. Do you mean traditional level 1 and level 2?
amanda uses a bit of a different paradigm, deciding on its own when to
do what with a scheduled backup window.

Hi All,
We're trying to follow backup best practice (ie the 3-2-1 Rule: 3
backups on 2 different media, 1 off-site). My question is: What's the
best way to achieve this:
1. Run three identical backups to each of the three destinations
2. Run a single backup and use something like scp or rsync to copy
the resulting backup files to the other two destinations
3. Or can Amanda backup to multiple destinations at once, and if so,
how is this accomplished
Thanks in advance for the advice
Cheers
