The second and third paragraphs say:
Identifying information shall persist through power cycles (i.e., be
stored
in non-volatile storage), hard resets, logical unit resets, I_T nexus
losses,
media format operations, and media replacement.
Table 61 defines the identifying information types.
The first Identifying Information Type entry in that table says:
Peripheral device identifying information: a value describing
the peripheral device (e.g., an operating system volume label)
The example is a problem. Volume labels generally do not survive media
format
operations and media replacement.
Thanks,
--David
