Re: Hardware UUID on Midrange boxes?

Hello James

If all you need is to generate a unique UUID for ID purpose then
here ia a link.
(we use it to generate UUIDs to uniquely identify records passed to another
system)

subject: Hardware UUID on Midrange boxes?

Fellow geeks and geekettes:

While, on a box where the model and serial number are programmatically
readable, accessing a motherboard UUID (as on a WinDoze or Linux server)
seems kind of pointless,

Is there a hardware UUID on an IBM Midrange box, that corresponds to the
motherboard UUID on a WinDoze or Linux box? And if so, is it
programmatically readable?
