Most people doing this would copy the new db to a separate location on the 
remote machine (while Fuseki continues to run), then quickly take Fuseki down, 
swap the dbs (possible using a symlink) and then bring Fuseki back up-- it 
should take a few seconds at most. If your node storage cannot store more than 
one copy on a node, that is not a limitation of Jena.

Otherwise, as Lorenz pointed out, wholesale copying the db is not the most 
network-efficient way to do this. Have you considered some delta-distribution 
system like RDF Delta?
