No, the domU keeps working, I think because all partitions are already

I figured out why /dev/sda is assigned to the LUN. This is a part from
the domU configurationfile:
root = '/dev/sda1 ro'
disk = [ 'phy:xen-images/loghost-disk,sda1,w',
'phy:xen-images/loghost-swap,sda2,w',
'phy:xen-images/loghost-remotelogs,sda3,w', '
phy:xen-images/loghost-httplogs,sda4,w' ]
As you can see, only sda1 through sda4 are used, but sda is not. Mystery
solved.
Step two: what to do next:
1. Alter configuration file and add a phony /dev/sda, so that udev will
give my LUN (hopefully) another name
2. Alter complete setup: assign only a /dev/sda to the domU and
partition it inside the domU
3. Configure the LUN as /dev/sda, hoping that partitions made on the LUN
will not conflict with existing /dev/sda[1-4]
4. Figure out a way to have udev assign another name than /dev/sda (eg
sd[b-z])
Any suggestions? Are there best practices for a situation like this, or
more in general: partitioning for domU?
Regards, Gertjan
