SegFault, please note that backing up stuff this way is not proper: to
my knowledge, Linux does not offer any technology like VSS in Windows
(whch allows to "hint" a running application to make its currently
opened files into some consistent state) and hence copying or otherwise
snapshotting files under a live system is not gonna work and might bite
you later when you will actually need your data back.

ejabberd's Mnesia database should preferably be backed up by running 
`ejabberdctl backup`.
if you're using some external DBMs to store ejabberd's data, use the backup 
tools of that DBMs.
