system installer tools to initialize the machine ID stored in

randomly generated ID. See

for more information about this file.</p><p>This tool will execute no operation if
<code class="filename">/etc/machine-id</code> is already
initialized.</p><p>If a valid D-Bus machine ID is already configured for the
system, the D-Bus machine ID is copied and used to initialize the
machine ID in <code class="filename">/etc/machine-id</code>.</p><p>If run inside a KVM virtual machine and a UUID is passed via
the <code class="option">-uuid</code> option, this UUID is used to initialize
the machine ID instead of a randomly generated one. The caller
must ensure that the UUID passed is sufficiently unique and is
different for every booted instanced of the VM.</p><p>Similar, if run inside a Linux container environment and a
UUID is set for the container this is used to initialize the
machine ID. For details see the documentation of the <a class="ulink" href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface" target="_top">Container
