Hello, all,

Would syncing backups from a PBS server use less data than running backups directly from PVE? I've got a PBS server I'm setting up to put off-site, and am looking for the most efficient method possible given that I have a data cap to work with. I would assume this is syncing directly from one PBS server to another, but wanted to be sure.

Thank you
 
yes Sync Remote PBS from another PBS is rsync alike. Only diff/New data is transfered over the wire.
