[linux-lvm] Backing up clustered LVM... options?

Well this threw a monkey wrench in my plans:
root at vsh02:~# lvcreate --size=230G -s -n res01_snap
/dev/dom0_vg0/res01.disk.xm
Clustered snapshots are not yet supported.
What options do I have?
I'm running a two-node cluster with the LVM PV on a DRBD partition in
Primary/Primary mode with, obviously, clustering enabled. Each Xen
virtual machine has a dedicated LV (ie: res01.disk.xm above). One VM has
a very large DB and I was planning to use LVM snapshots to keep the DB
lock time to a minimum...
Thanks for any advice.
