Duplicity - save backup to multiple destinations

Is it possible to configure duplicity to save the generated backup to multiple destinations without doing the whole backup process twice?
Something like duplicty --full --volsize 1024 -v5 sftp://user@host.com/folder /save/also/to/server/folder
If I do a full backup every two weeks, I want to save that full backup to a folder on my server where I can download it and on a sftp backup space (which is not reachable from the outside).
If I downloaded the backup, I would delete it on the server (because I have not that much space on my server).
Is there an easy way of doing this with duplicity directly, or did I need to create a custom shell script which does all this stuff?

execute duplicity several time with different destination ?

yes, but this would lead to multiple backup processes (multiple times packaging of backup files, encrypting, etc.) which is inefficient (huge server load).

how about the multi backend in mirror mode as described in the man page<br/> duplicity.nongnu.org/duplicity.1.html#sect18 <br> ? ..ede/duply.net

According to the github of duplicity, this feature is still in the to do list.
I think the easier way is to make a small shell script that will move the file at the end the process.
#!/bin/bash
duplicty --full --volsize 1024 -v5 /local save/folder &&
rsync /local save/folder user@host.com/folder ||
printf "an error occurs during the transfern"
It's a code sample it needs to be tested
The idea is if duplicity return 0 (no error) on the local backup then it runs rsync to send the file to the remote host.com and if one of the commands fails a small error message is written.

Thank you for your answer, but your referring toDuplicatirather thanDuplicityin your github link... Seems that I need to do this by hand via shell script... Thank you for the suggested script.

OK you're completely right. I'm sorry I've been fool by google approximation algorithm though as duplicati is mainly base on duplicity I think it's still apply.
