If this is covered somewhere in the wiki or elsewhere, please point me to
it.

With the problems I had with disk space on my backup server recently, I am
considering moving it to a machine that has SATA and a 1.5TB drive. However,
I would rather not start over again, I want to migrate the data over to the
other machine. I know I need to install backuppc, copy over /etc/backuppc,
but what is the best/fastest way to migrate the data over? I was thinking

rsync -avHe ssh machine1:/var/lib/backuppc/ machine2:/var/lib/backuppc/

But this seems like it would take a good while. Is there a faster/better
way? I had also thought about using netcat.

What is the best practice for migrating backuppc data?

Thanks,
