Description
To collect data from NethServer's installations uuid is not valid because is not unique. For example DigitalOcean uses the same uuid from multiple virtual machine instances. In fact, every time the cron jobs send data, the uuid is replaced and the associated ip disappeared.

We should generate our own uuid and save it inside the configuration db. Below script can be used as configuration action:
#!/bin/bash
#
# Generate UUID if not exists
#
uuid=`/sbin/e-smith/config getprop phone-home uuid`
if [ "x$uuid" == "x" ]; then
/sbin/e-smith/config setprop phone-home uuid `/usr/bin/uuidgen`
fi
exit 0
