I don't think that would be particularly sane to use iscsi imho.

Ontap 8.0 does have have clustered mode which allows a number of  
systems to have a single name space and load balance between a number  
of servers.

 From the Announcement they sent round in September.

Data ONTAP 8.0 is the first release of the Data ONTAP 8 release  
family. It is a single codebase, with two separately orderable products:
Data ONTAP 8.0 7-Mode: The next release of Data ONTAP 7G (after 7.3.x)
Data ONTAP 8.0 Cluster-Mode: The next release of Data ONTAP GX (after  
10.0.x)
The RCx classification indicates that NetApp has completed its  
internal testing of the release. RCs are provided primarily to enable  
customers who want to start early on exploring the release for either  
new features or bug fixes, or who want to start testing the release  
before deploying it in critical production environments. NetApp may  
provide multiple RCs as is necessary to address specific issues found  
before the release becomes a General Availability (GA) release. NetApp  
Global Services (NGS) provides support for RCs.
