Yes, I run the same configuration for the same reasons. Basically, I
couldn't find a block-iscsi helper script to use with Debian Lenny,
and performance was acceptable with this setup: I'm able to copy data
between iSCSI devices at 10 MB/s. So two of my domUs are iSCSI rooted.
On the other hand, iSCSI root support in Lenny isn't that great either,
so I'll surely test putting the initiator into the dom0s as well.
That will also simplify access control management, which is the weakest
point of the current solution.
