there are a lot of scenarios..but it think every server can accomplish itself when server is appropriate times so is can be `local copy to backupserver`

server1 -to backup server can automatize with crond.

[ and must be trust between servers and backupserver with ssh key verification and
must be backupuser with non-root perm on the backupserver just except write permission on "/usr/local/bin/backups/" ]

maybe like below something (you can specialize script to what your requisitions)

Code:
.........
cd localbackupfolder/
tar czvf "backup_`hostname -s`_`date +%Y_%m_%d__%H_%M_%S`.tar.gz" *
scp backup_`hostname -s`_*.tar.gz backupuser@backupserver:/usr/local/bin/backups/ 
........
