    Just to add, in less you have a really slow link and/or a lot of data, synchronising over the network (using autosync which involve just starting replication with "-a" flag) is usually the best method, as even though it may take a few days to sync over the network, it can take this long to arrange getting tapes off site and transported to new site and imported into backup software catalogs, plus of course the time to backup and restore, and using autosync over the network is a lot less hassle.
