Bug Description
Brief Description
-----------------
It was detected that all StarlingX's Debian installations are using the same content in /etc/machine-id, this can't be as this number needs to be a unique value per node, in order to generate valid random MACs. If reused across multiple nodes all SRIOV's VF interfaces on the same
PCI slot will have the same MAC address across the nodes, creating networking problems.
Severity
--------
<Major: System/Feature is usable but degraded>
Steps to Reproduce
------------------
Execute the installation with the same BUILD_ID across several nodes and
Expected Behavior
------------------
The content of /etc/machine-id should be unique per node.
Actual Behavior
----------------
Compare the value of /etc/machine-id, they will be the same.
Reproducibility
---------------
Reproducible
System Configuration
-------
Multi-node system
