Backup of ViPR databases

Hi all. I am trying to configure a backup of ViPR SRM by following instructions in the document entitled "EMC ViPR SRM: vapp backup and restore using EMC NetWorker". While I have the backup working, NetWorker complains about the database files changing while the backup is in progress which shows up in NetWorker as an error/failure. I.e, this would be considered to be crash consistent and not application consistent. Usually this means that the integrity of the database cannot be guaranteed on restore. While this may be ok for ViPR, one of my pet hates is having recurring errors because what happens is that people start ignoring the backup because it always shows as failed. Then something else goes wrong which results in no backups at all. Is there a way to get an application consistent backup of the ViPR SRM vapps? I haven't been able to find one. Cheers! Brendna.
