Don't know why something would remount. Do you have a cron
job doing something like

        for server in vserver list
        do
                vserver $server exec some command
        done

This will effectivly mount /proc and /dev/pts beforce executing
the command.

Now for the backup, use the -l tar option. It means "stay on one
file system". No need to umount.
