I made the block special file and then I can access to the exported
lvm-backed vbd inside the domU:

ws1:~# mknod -m 660 /dev/hda4 b 3 4
ws1:~# mount /dev/hda4 /mnt/
ws1:~# df -h
S.ficheros          Tamaño Usado  Disp Uso% Montado en
/dev/hda2             5,0G  358M  4,7G   7% /
/dev/hda3              30G   22G  8,8G  71% /home/mirror
/dev/hda4             5,0G   33M  5,0G   1% /mnt

Thanks for all your replys.
