I use logical volume to backup Lotus Notes environment.
A RunBeforeClient script stops Domino, generate a snapshot of the volume in which there are the databases, mount it under a different mount point and restart Domino. It takes no more than 3/4 minutes.
The FileSet obviously include the snapshot filesystem, not the running one.
A RunAfterClient script destroys the snapshot at the backup end, after some hours.
If you need details ask me, I will send them.

Another, potentially faster, strategy is to use rsync to duplicate the
files to another location while Notes is stopped and then back up
from the duplicated area (meaning you are free to restart Notes).
rsync only copies changed data, so the time period that Notes is stopped
should be fairly short. Note, however, that this will double your disk
usage.
