Dave,

What I have been doing for backups is to use lvm snapshots from dom0 and then
use duplicity.

something like this:

# lvcreate --size 128M --snapshot --name snap /dev/vg00/web_root
# mount /dev/vg00/snap /mnt/snap
# duplicity /mnt/snap scp://remotehost/web_root
# umount /mnt/snap
# lvremove -f vg00/snap
