Hmm, wondering why you wanna have LU* to "clone" this fs. Actually, if
it doesn't contain any data (i.e. packages, configs), which would be
changed by the upgrade/patching or whatever the intention is for the new
BE, I would always exclude this fs in question from LU* ops - i.e. treat
it as a shared fs for all BE's.

Especially for UFS this would save you a lot of time (for cpio'ing all
that stuff) and usually does not mandate you to "need to shutdown all 
services, which use this fs before lucreate starts and luactivate/init 6 
has been done". Even if you want to "clone" that fs, excluding it from
LU* would make sense as well, since you can decide, when to "clone" the
fs in question ...
