As the OP, let me insist that I have multiple backups. However and unfortunately, those backups do not contain the snapshots that I'd like to preserve when exchanging the disk. What makes the case complicate is not the question how to preserve and copy the current data; it's how to retain the historic data embodied in snapshots.
