Postgres Guru¹s

Do you guys know the procedure to use hardware snapshots (for eg 3par) to
restore postgres database? Is there somewhere I can find good documentation
to do this? 

I¹d like to do the following

# put the database in the backup mode
# take an filesystem snap
# get the database out of the backup mode
# mount the snap on a different host
# bring up postgres and start querying.

Help appreciated

Regards
Jigar
