Then the option is:

Strike the second, reading the next line of the man-page reveals the
"--only-write-batch"-option. :-)
Using --only-write-batch instead of --write-batch does not remove the
need for a local copy of the backup server's contents that rsync can
use
to determine what data to include in the batch file.
Thanks for the quick help guys! The external backup server will be
online, just not with a large enough connection to realistically
backup via the connection, hence the transportation system!
Since it will be online then presumably i can use the write-batch
option as the in house server will be able to see the backup server to
decide what needs transferring, and then just do the transporting of
the batch on the intermediate drive?
