Hello, I have managed my offsite backup setup so that only bacula volumes get rsync-ed and it works fine for half a year. Total backup size is about 500Gb, nightly amount of data rsync-ed is between 1 and 10Gb (so my home adsl connection with 10Mbit/s downstream is OK to keep offsite backups at home). This is in an assumption that you need offsite backup only when you've totally lost onsite one. In this case bacula server has to be restored/reinstalled first (or better in advance, to be able to test restoration) and database has to be restored before using offsite backup. Additionally I encrypt the bacula volumes on the fly while remotely rsync-ing them (on the fly by means of fuse encfs).
