One of the possible scenarios is someone taking a lvm snap of the backend.As an aside, lvm snapshots are good for one-off temporary saves, but are completely useless as an interval snapshot.

Yes. Main reason to introduce coordinated snapshotting via gluster is for backups. I would remove the snapshot after backup completes.
