https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/how-to-get-computer-id-in-rhel-4/m-p/4238188#M33236 Admins,<BR /><BR />Could you please let me know how to find the computer id in RHEL 4. I am planning to install kernel-devel for compliance issues, wanted to check whether this will change the computer id or not. As some of the sotware licenses are locked to computer id, I wanted to test this.<BR /><BR />Thanks Tue, 22 Jul 2008 08:05:42 GMT Jagadesh_2 2008-07-22T08:05:42Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/how-to-get-computer-id-in-rhel-4/m-p/4238188#M33236 Admins,<BR /><BR />Could you please let me know how to find the computer id in RHEL 4.
