Hi All, it's indeed in the doc: https://www.uyuni-project.org/uyuni-docs/uyuni/administration/tshoot-registe... It happened the same to me a while ago on KVM. Regards Nicola On 31/03/2020 12:21, Crefeld, Tobias LKV Bayern e.V. wrote:

I have a VMware CentOS7 VM which was cloned from another. When I import the first as a Salt client everything is fine. When I go to register the second, a new salt key is generated for the second hostname but when the key is accepted, some attributes of the original registered machine are replaced by the second. In other words, a second registered system is not created, the first system is converted into the identity of the second.

I had a similar replacement effect with cloned VMs. Somewhere I found an advise that worked fine:

rm /etc/machine-id rm /var/lib/dbus/machine-id dbus-uuidgen --ensure systemd-machine-id-setup

cat /etc/salt/minion_id ( vi /etc/salt/minion_id service salt-minion restart )

The last lines are optional for checking that the system is using its own minion_id.

Hope it helps!

Regards, Tobias.
