Hi,
I wonder what the best way is to backup a rsnapshot backup?

I currently backup my backup to an external USB disk via a simple "rsync
-avH --delete" - however, is there maybe a more efficient way?

I'm currently considering doing the backup over a WAN, so I need some
kind of solution that minimizes the data transferred.

Best Regards,
Hermann

Remote rsnapshot of daily.0, same retention. (what else? ;-))
