I don't think we ever worried about it. If database server $foo had it's whole chassis swapped out, it was still database server $foo. It didn't stop serving it's purpose because a vendor had to swap it out. Generally, very few individual systems had physical asset tags placed on them. Because we bought in such large quantities, we would get one tag and associate it with a rack (or racks ... or rooms) of systems. The auditors only cared that we could point at something physical and say "This is asset 128394X382G."
