<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
|
|
provisioned or randomly generated ID. See
|

for more information about this file.</para>

<para>If the tool is invoked without the <option>--commit</option>
|

switch, <filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> is initialized with a
|

valid, new machine ID if it is missing or empty. The new machine
|

ID will be acquired in the following fashion:</para>

<orderedlist>

<listitem><para>If a valid machine ID is stored in <filename>/run/machine-id</filename>, the machine ID

<listitem><para>If run inside a KVM virtual machine and a UUID is configured (via the

<listitem><para>Commit a transient machine ID to disk. This

command may be used to convert a transient machine ID into a

persistent one. A transient machine ID file is one that was

<literal>tmpfs</literal>) to
|
|
<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> during the early phase of

the boot process. This may happen because

missing a valid machine ID file at that point.</para>

<para>This command will execute no operation if

<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> is not mounted from a

memory file system, or if <filename>/etc/</filename> is

read-only. The command will write the current transient

|
machine ID to disk and unmount the
|
|
<filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> mount point in a
|
|
race-free manner to ensure that this file is always valid and

accessible for other processes.</para>
