Why can't the guest talk to iscsi? Or reboot the guest (or even host)
with a recent ubuntu-based clonezilla-live and have it write the image
copied to an NFS export from a different system that has its disks on
the SAN?

If the SAN is just a temporary copy that you are going to reload
elsewhere, the clonezilla image copy should be the perfect storage
format.
