I suppose you could even issue a SEND CP xxx SLEEP to stop Linux from
working, but it would cause things to time out and sessions to drop
when it takes a bit longer.

Especially with LVM, it is hard to avoid inconsistency when the backup
of the physical volumes is not done at the same time. But with LVM you
can quiesce the disk for a moment to allow the backups to be taken.
