backup large data

HI, I was reviewing the documentation related to backup large data :

 

http://dev.day.com/docs/en/crx/current/administering/backup_and_restore.html

 

However, in case you have a large repository to restore in production environment and you cannot turn off the server. You need a fast backup as snapshot, however in cq5.4.1, apparently  you cannot make a snapshot without turn off the environment.

Any idea?

Maybe http://cqdump.wordpress.com/2011/03/23/crx-2-1-improved-backup/ can help. It describes a way to de-scope the datastore from the backup, thus accelerating the backup process itself. Due to the nature of the datastore you don't have to backup it in the same process the other parts of the repository (TarPM, Index and Journal).
