Although I have a couple of questions, first I want to say that I successfully migrated my production wordpress multisite of 245 sites to a staging site.

This may seem like a stupid question but, I have a 2nd backup profile that I have created for cron following the video tutorial. I am using drop-box and have this setup in advanced configuration (as I do for my manual profile back-up)

My next step is to add the command line in cron. Is there anything I need to do at the cron level for the dropbox storage or will this be done automatically with the profile settings?

The transfer to Dropbox is part of the backup, the CRON job doesn't need to know about it. CRON starts the backup and Solo takes over from there.
