Notes

Cross region is not supported.
Cross region within the same cloud service provider is supported. Configuring secondary copy in different region will result in inter-region data transfer cost.
Cross cloud is supported only for the backup gateway method. Configuring secondary copy in different region will result in egress data transfer costs.
