Hello. I tried searching for this in the mailing list, but could not find a definitive answer to my question, so... I am using rdiff-backup to backup to a local directory. I would like to have this backup mirrored to another server (and potentially mirrored a third time to another server with a portable hard drive attached). Is it safe (and recommended) to just use rsync for the mirror of the backup directory? What if rsync fails to finish a session? Will the mirror of the backup directory end up in a consistent state such that I can restore from it if necessary? If this is not feasible, then I might try to simply run rdiff-backup from the remote server from the original files and not the local backup. But I would prefer to mirror the first backup if possible. Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
