Hello
We are currently upgrading our Lenny machines to Squeeze. We use VMware
almost exclusively. In the upgrade, Squeeze prefers using UUID in the fstab
file. Initially I saw nothing wrong with this, until I installed my new
template VM's. For fun I provisioned 2 VM's and to my annoyance they have
the same UUIDs as the template for each of the partitions.
I was wondering if anyone see potential problems with this? I.e. all future
VM's based on this template with the same disk UUID?
This is a VMware guest deployment issue, not a Linux issue. Such UUID issues are well documented in the VMware forums.
