It wouldn't be too hard to write this yourself, just a simple bash script that runs PHP code containing a query to lock down the forum. (Im sure it's just an entry in the settings in the database somewhere that says forum_locked), after that you run the mysql backup command, even to store it on a remote location. Meh, I had this script, wait I still have it :D

Also, but that would require the reading of the config file, the matching of that certain line, the modifying of it and then writing it back away. But that could also easily be coded :D
