Hi Chen,

the answer to your need is dar_slave. Please check out the following
document:
http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Notes.html#II
http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Notes.html#XII
as well as dar_slave man page:
http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/man/dar_slave.html

For further questions about your need, thanks to use dar-support
mailing-list instead of the current dar-discussion mailing list, because
it is more appropriated and has moreover a better response time (as
there is much more people reading it).

Regards,
Denis.
