ExportImport module?
http://svn.zope.org/ZODB/trunk/src/ZODB/ExportImport.py

At one point I suggested a feature for Zope 2 which would be "Export as
Mounted Storage".
Which could generate a database with your exported content in it.  So you
could simply
wire up the new storage in .conf file, delete the original and remount it
with ZMI.
