Off-site backup OSX Tahoe 26.1

How can I make an off site backup from my iMac with OSX Tahoe 26.1

I tried everything, coping home directory, make a disk image of home directory, make disk image of local Time Machine disk etc.

To truly protect your non replaceable Data


Have a 3-2-1 Rescue Plan in place and always current


3 Backups using 2 methods and 1 off site incase of natural disaster or un-natural disaster.


Each of the above should be done to a Dedicated Single Purposed External Drive

A Cloud Based Backup may or may not suit your needs

Full Disclosure.


I do not recommend a Cloud Based Backup Strategy simple because when the Backup is really needed


More often than not, the computer is in a condition where Internet Access is iffy or too time consuming to use the Cloud Backup in a timely manner
