Re: [uyuni-users] UUID and Uyuni

That went quick, there is now also an advice on the Suse documentation. https://documentation.suse.com/external-tree/en-us/suma/4.0/suse-manager/adm... That explains exactly what to do if you run into that issue. Best regards Matthias — Matthias Hinrichs

Hello

The systems uuid is used by saltstack to identify the machines. The first registered machine behaves correctly and the following ones will replace that one.

There was an article on the microfocus wiki how to handle that and how to create a new uuid on the VMs.

I will check if I find it again ...

Best Regards Matthias

 How does the UUID relate in the grand scheme of things in uyuni? I have a set of machines with the same UUID beause they are just VM clones. They are the only thing that is the same between images that I can discrene as being similar. When I try to add them they don't add into Uyuni correctly, swapping machines in and out as to which is showing at any time. The name might be different from IP address. What do I do, because changing the UUID on all my machines isn't happening.
