Hello,
We have 3 node ceph hyperconverged PVE cluster and onsite PBS.Onsite backup operations running smoothly without any issue.
Now we have scenario with offsite PBS,remote sync from onsite PBS over WAN .
Because of WAN connection speed we want make first full backup remote sync from onsite PBS over LAN to temproray PBS and carry it manually near by offsite PBS.
Resync temp PBS to offsite PBS over LAN,after syncing first full backup over LAN to offsite PBS ,continue incremental remote sync over WAN .
Is this scenario doable?
Anybody try this before?If yes please share best practices.
Any caveats or cons?

Yes,
this can be done without much changes required to PBS itself. You basically have just to make sure that the source and the target PBS instance can communicate with each other also when in the remote location via WAN. So you will have to make a network configuration for the LAN and once moved to offsite for WAN.
 
Chris thank you for quick response.
Will incremental remote sync run after changing network configuration to offsite for WAN?
