Why can't you use just fs_includes and excludes above?

And why do you want to store it in /var/backups/maas_config when backupninja takes care about backing up to proper location?

if I use fs_include/exclude configs will be sent only to remote location, but idea was also to store them on glusterfs volume. in other words having local backup that is quickly accessible but not stored on the same node that is being backed up and remote copy

So use-case is to backup to multiple locations? Then you should add support into backupninja for this use-case, this behavior may not be desired for all deployments as MaaS data can be probably pretty heavy (all the images, etc.) and /var/backups is usually root volume.
Purpose of /var/backups is to have place where to collect some data before sending them to backup location (eg. data that are continuously changing, et mysql database that you need to dump first). But it's not meant to be persistent or somehow reliable backup location.
