Hello.
Is it possible to manually change the UID number - SMBIOS settings (type1) - uuid=XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXx ....., for a virtual machine in its properties inside Proxmox after its installation and if she has already worked for some time. Will there be conflicts with the network or equipment.

Yes this is possible and should not be an issue for most of the VMs. The question is why would you like to change it in the first place?
 
Many thanks! This is necessary to reactivation a new full license for 60 days for MikroTik RouterOS Cloud Hosted Router (CHR) without a new re-installation, it is tied to this UID.
