Thanks all for everyone's input!
We added a trio of sync commands after every uv -admin -L, and that seemed
to do the trick.
We had no copy errors.
We'll look into the other solutions (rcp -p, and jfs2) and let you know of
any improvements.

After you issue the dbpause, drop to aix as root and do a few sync
commands,
thusly:
# sync cr
# sync cr
# sync cr
I usually give it a few seconds in between issuing the commands, but
when I script it, it's sync; sync
