First, The CDS, OCDS, Journal backups will quiesce DFHSM during that time. Go back through SYSLOG and see when they start and stop. It just might be normal processing and you just need to wait until the backups of the CDS etal complete.
How long do your backups take? Are you waiting long enough for the backups to completed? You may need to open an issue with IBM on it if your backups are taking too long.
