PBS: Is this a good alternative to a Pull Sync Job that also encrypts my snapshots?

Hi everyone,

I basically added localhost as a remote to my PBS instance and created a Push Sync Job to itself on another datastore.

This is the only hacky way I found to effectively make a Pull Sync Job that also encrypts my unencrypted snapshots on the fly.

Do you people know of a better way to do this? Or is this the best known way even though it is probably less efficient than operating strictly on local IO because of networking stuff?

Thanks.
