That would not work, because for the Levels to reference each other, they have to run through the same Job. I.e. it would create two independent lists of backups if you separated the levels into two Jobs. > > (This is for off-site incrementals that are taken by Attix off of a W2k3 > backup server.

Backing up to disk, you could simply scp or rsync the volume files. Of course, you could also use rsync to transfer the data to the off-site system, independent of Bacula.
