ATA defines WWN too... I'm curious what the format is? uuid-ish?

FC uses a 64-bit identifier for a WWN.

you end up with things like "50:00:0e:10:00:00:01:1c".
ironically, FC switching doesn't actually 'use' the WWN but a 24-bit FC_ID.

for things like mappings -- who knows -- perhaps WWN is good -- perhaps something like a serial # is also good -- perhaps both are good?
