Sorry, I missed the "SAN" in the subject line.  You may or may not be
able to perform backups directly from the SAN.  If you can, it is likely
to be a much faster way.

If you're planning to mount the same SAN volume on multiple servers,
keep in mind that most filesystems are designed assuming they will only
be mounted by one host at a time.  Having the same SAN volume mounted on
multiple servers at the same time, even read-only, unless a
multiple-mountable filesystem such as GFS is in use on the SAN volumes,
is asking for trouble.
