<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-machine-id-setup</command> may
be used by system installer tools to initialize the
machine ID stored in
<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> at install time
with a randomly generated ID. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>machine-id</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information about this file.</para>
<para>This tool will execute no operation if
<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> is already
initialized.</para>
<para>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
<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename>.</para>
<para>If run inside a KVM virtual machine and a UUID
is passed via the <option>-uuid</option> 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.</para>
<para>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 <ulink
url="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface">Container
Interface</ulink>.</para>
<para>Use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
to initialize the machine ID on mounted (but not
booted) system images.</para>
