The SCSI volumes currently get a name like '17:0:0:1' based on $host:$bus:$target:$lun. The names are intended to be unique per pool and stable across pool restarts. The inclusion of the $host component breaks this, because the $host number for iSCSI pools is dynamically allocated by the kernel at time of login. This changes the name to be 'unit:0:0:1', ie removes the leading host component. THe 'unit:' prefix is just to ensure the volume name doesn't start with a number and make it clearer when seen out of context.
The SCSI volumes also get a 'key' field based on the fully qualified volume path. All SCSI volumes have a unique serial available in hardware which can be obtained by sending a suitable SCSI command.
