    Fellow SAs:

    Please suggest me of a way to backup a 20 Gig
    Filesystem to another filesystem in a different volume
    group. I am looking for a quick and non-complicated
    way. The reason is that I have a small downtime window
    and I have been asked to shrink a filesystem with
    critical data. Its a database filesystem. [I want to
    play it safe because I had a nasty experience with
    lvreduce in the past :( ]

    I dont have the time to take a tape backup after
    shutting down the database.

    Any suggestion from you would be most appreciated.
    Thanks a lot.

    NEIL.
