Hi,
What is the current best practice in Proxmox for setting the SMBIOS UUID for a KVM virtual machine?
(This older post mentions a `/etc/qemu-server/VMID.conf`, but that's no longer valid, I assume).
I see from the qm.conf for my VMs that there's a smbios1 uuid field.
1. What's the best way to edit this field? It doesn't to be exposed in the web GUI - is there a programmatic way of doing it.
2. When you clone a KVM VM - does it generate a random new UUID? (I believe it does, right, just from checking my machine, but wanted to be sure).
3. Are there any issues from having multiple machines running on the same node with the same UUID?
Regards,
Victor
