Expanded the option “-w” from Suggested Nicknames for Known WWN Patterns to vict.jar such that vict.jar -w 52:4a:93:7d:74:f1:14:00 offers “Pure-d74f114-CT0.FC0” or “Pure-d74f114:0:0” in brief, giving (weak) nicknames to Pure Storage Flash-based storage targets.

Note that since WWN patterns are moved to the external WWNDesc project, this is merely test code to ensure that the parallel work in the external project is functioning as required today and henceforth.

This nickname pattern is based on what I’ve seen deployed, and has no clear direction or description from Pure Storage. Pure is actually shipping QLogic HBAs as storage target FA ports, like many other vendors, however they have the decency and class to re-brand the OUI as their own OUI, making them easier to identify. THANKS, Pure! You make our lives a bit easier by taking that extra step.
