My apology if I don't understand the context of this but doing backups
from a central machine has two parts.

1) If you are moving all the data to a central machine then you have a
serious problem.

2) If you are controlling the backup process from a central machine then
you don't have a problem assuming you have distributed tape drives per
network "spur".
