>open-iscsi assigns the discoverd LUN also to /dev/sda

So the domU does stop working since it's losing its root partition?
If not, what's the output of udevinfo -q symlink -n /dev/sda?

In general, iSCSI from within a domU should be working since it's plain TCP/IP. 
Performance wise it would probably be better to connect to the targets in dom0 
and assign the LUN to domU as a regular block device.
