You might be interested in a tool I recently wrote. It's a wrapper around the Export Snapshot tool. It's not heavily tested, but it has worked for us so far. You can use it to create a snapshot and export it to S3. It can also be used to import a snapshot from S3 into a running HBase cluster. You need to dedicate a bucket for this.
