    In our case, we do this:

        Synchronize
        Split
        Importvg
        varyonovg
        Mount filesystems
        Perform our backup
        Unmount filesystems
        Exportvg
        Varyoffvg

    Then on the next day, we repeat.

    Bill,

    I've run a couple of tests, and I didn't need to varyonvg after I completed

    Thanks,
