Unfortunately, though Windows detects the change of serial, the
UniqueIds are still all the same.

Ah, I hadn't noticed that. I'm not sure what's going on as I'm
following the RedHat docs here:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Virtualization_Deployment_and_Administration_Guide/sect-Storage_Volumes-Adding_storage_devices_to_guests.html#sect-Adding_storage_devices_to_guests-Adding_FC_LUN_device

My disk entries look like:

<disk type="block" device="lun" sgio="filtered">
  <source dev="/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD80EFAX-68LHPN0_7SGBJP0C"/>
  <driver name="qemu" type="raw" cache="none"/>
  <target dev="sdb" bus="scsi"/>
</disk>

Producing this QEMU command line:
https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/d1eHjKqQeTVm7epjhLwccQ

And the log looks the same as above.

I altered it following the docs here:
https://sort.veritas.com/public/documents/sfha/6.1/linux/productguides/html/sfhas_virtualization/ch03s02s02s05.htm
which produced this command line:
https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/62P2SlBzlvZdGvOOGbr2uw

And it works fine and produces usable UniqueIds, though I'm a little
worried because my kernel doesn't appear to support unfilitered SGIO
which may be necessary.
