For the drives you're better off creating udev rules to create something
like /dev/scsi/ntape/{drive-WWID} and /dev/scsi/generics/{WWID}
These won't change no matter where on the scsi/fabric the drive is.
I've had a request ticket in with Redhat to implement this on RHEL4/5 for
a long time, ditto with the /dev/sg/ devices for the same reason.
(Not to mention a strong wish for multipath support for tapes and
generics...)
