Using MAC addresses is a solid option too, just saying.

Wait, can you really use VM UUIDs for this? Sounds odd.

I vaguely recall something about MAC addresses being less reliable for this kind of configuration. I wonder if the IQN is really the best practice here.

I feel like using the VM hostname could lead to issues if the hostname changes, so I'm leaning towards the iSCSI IQN option.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the VM UUID could also work since it uniquely identifies the VM. It might have been mentioned in one of the practice questions we did.

I remember we discussed the importance of using the correct identifiers in the allowlist during our practice sessions. I think using the iSCSI IQN might be the right choice here.
