Good morning Nicholas,

I want to back-up a WP multisite with 32 subsites which has something odd. WP is installed within /public_html/ but the media of all subsites are one level higher.
For location01 the media is location is /location01

So directory structure is like this:

/public_html/ = main site
/public_html/wp-content/

/location01/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/39/files/

/location02/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/25/files/

When I back-up the site obviously only the main site will be backed up.

Is there something I can do about this in the configuration of Akeeba?
Thanks!

This is what the Off-site Directories Inclusion feature was designed to do.
