      Similar to RHEL-123373 there's a risk of NVMe identifiers changing between major RHEL releases and to a small degree between kernel versions as well as an effect of kernel quirks.

      There's an ongoing initiative to offer NVMe drives certification script that would warn about system drives being subject to quirks: RHELMISC-21802. Some of the quirks may potentially hide or change some NVMe identifiers with a resulting effect to the udev by-id symlinks. However, the certification script considers likely only quirks currently in effect, i.e. in the currently booted kernel. For LEAPP a different way needs to be find out - e.g. maintaining its own database of quirks based on grepping the kernel sources. Either way, both approaches have some common ground and potential for cooperation.
