Yes, snapshot operation of the Farm backend store is on node basis. We
just send an cluster-wide message that request for snapshot operations
on each node.

Currently, Farm doesn't support *live* snapshot, so it safe for us to do
a cluster-wide snapshot without on-the-fly IO requests. And those
snapshot objects are distributed on each backend store.
