Using crashplan to backup a time machine disk So, crashplan themselves say it can't and shouldn't be done, because of hard links and how TM works... But can't it, really?! Isn't there any way around it?

Reason I want to use CrashPlan is because it does everything else I need - except easy recovery, which TimeMachine provides.

PS: "Nope, it can't be done" and a very detailed answer on why, or "do it with rsync" or something are both ok here.
Do not attempt to prove crashplan wrong. Many bad things can happen.
Use the new Time Machine (since Mountain Lion) instead.
Problem solved.
