Use ZFS for the backup of mylvmsnapshots

Registered by Lenz Grimmer

ZFS does provide "cheap" snapshotting functionality, meaning that in comparison to Linux LVM there is very little overhead involved in keeping a snapshot around. This could be utilized to actually treat the snapshot itself as the backup. In addition to that, "zfs send/receive" could be utilized to transfer the snapshot copies to a remote server for backup purposes.
