Sounds to me, then, like the use of the
snapshot/mirror/peer-to-peer copy features of storage devices e.g.
Shark, SATABeast, etc. are currently dangerous to use with Linux
filesystems. They would need to be able to coordinate their activities
with the filesystem lock/unlock components of the kernel to be made
safe?
My limited knowledge suggests you need do no more than reboot, maybe
less (basically you want the filesystem ro for a moment), initiating the
flashcopy at the right instant.
