286 6.1 Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD)
287 Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) is a component identifier that uniquely represents a specific
288 system device or component in a platform independent of the operating system, and the device vendor.
289 The DCIM data model utilizes FQDDs to correlate different aspects of representing a component, such as
290 hardware inventory view, configurable attribute, software inventory and so on. FQDDs are used by
291 software, such as BIOS, UEFI applications that link Unified Server Configurator (USC), and remote
292 management applications to identify various system components in a persistent way.
293 For FC HBA, the FQDD is used to uniquely identify a particular port. See Table 2 - FC HBA FQDD
294 examples.
