You should have a storage server in each location for sure. You COULD
run a single director but it would make more sense to run a director at
each location, at least in my mind.
You'll need Bacula v7.0 or later to get this all working properly, but
what you'd do:
- Run your regular backups at each site, using the on-site storage and
director.
- At some later time, run a 'Copy' job that makes a copy of all the
backed up jobs at each site to another site.
Each site would do all of its own restores etc locally, but should the
local copy be destroyed you'd have another copy off-site that could be used.
You will need a separate set of storage at each site for the local stuff
vs. the off-site stuff - this can be as simple as a different directory
defined in the storage daemon's configuration if you are using
disk-based backups.

I’m brand new to Bacula. Getting some good information from the list.
As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve got three offices in different
locations. I’m needing offsite storage of data as part of a disaster
recovery plan. I’ve got a couple of questions
·Should I have a server in every location?
·Can Bacula servers send data between each other?
Here’s my thinking
1.Local backup in case someone deletes a file
2.Use another remote server for offsite storage
Thanks!
