Divide out local files in different servers with limited space with rsync

If these files are just for backup you could

• create a (dated?) tar file of all the files you want to backup
• then use the 'split' command to break it up into appropriately sized chunks
• distribute one chunk to each server

As far as I now rsync doesn't have the functionality to distibute a file across servers. Another possibility is this:

• create one directory representing each server
• manually move/copy the files you want in each server to each of these directories, but if you copy, use hard-links so no more space is used.
• rsync each directory to its respective server. create a script to do this if this is a regular task.
