Would this be a per session or a per connection value?  It isnt' all

depending on the answer, the values might not be the same for all
connections.

Per session.

If the system uses HBAs, would this key describe the HBA, or the host?
(Or both?)

Possibly both since the intent is to assist support.  This
is of course subject to implementation and what information
is deemed most important.  Gut feel is that at the very least,
the key values should contain information that uniquely identifies
a node's iSCSI implementation (driver version, firmware version,
etc).

Nit: "MAY NOT" should be "may not".
