Try altering your scripts stop relevant daemons, then umount the
partition before dumping & see if the problem persists.

See sections '5.0 Conclusions' and '2.0 Active Tests' of Elizabeth D.
Zwicky's paper "Torture-testing Backup and Archive Programs: Things You
Ought to Know But Probably Would Rather Not".

Specifically for /home;- also see '/etc/nologin' in login(1), which file
I've found to be usefully created & nuked by my dump driving scripts.


Cheers,
