Can you stop open-iscsi?  Try running:
sudo /etc/init.d/open-iscsi stop
or
sudo service open-iscsi stop

You could also force a poweroff with:
sudo poweroff -f

Also, how did you install open-iscsi?  Did you get it from the Ubuntu
repositories, or install from source?  What version or open-iscsi are
you running?  You can get that information by running:
dpkg -l | grep iscsi

FYI, there is also an open-iscsi mailing list at:
http://groups.google.com/group/open-iscsi/

Thanks,

Joe
