Sorry, this was a bit garbled.  I meant to say:

You have an asymmetrical configuration here since there is no repo
server as shown in the pgBackRest docs.  That makes configuration quite
a bit harder and makes failover harder.

In the end, I think your migration would be made simpler by migrating
the pgBackRest repository before the database.

Is saving bandwidth an overriding concern or just a nice to have?
