Nir,
Looks like its crashing on the dmidecode system call.
I've attached the output from gbd as well as a dmidecode text dump,
dmidecode binary dump and each keywords run individually.

AMI dmi editor but this only allows access to limited fields. Do you know
another tools to rewrite the dmi info?
I don't. But whatever is inside your dmi, dmidecode must not crash.
Which version of python-dmidecode do you have installed?
Would you open a bug against it?
This is really unfortunate - I've reproduced the issue with the
attached dump and it's python-dmidecode that crashes. The issue is
actually fixed upstream, but the version at least in RHEL does not
contain the fix.
RHEL version:
python-dmidecode-3.10.13-11.el7.x86_64
works with (actual upstream):
python-dmidecode-3.12.2-1.el7.x86_64
(actually it's ~6 line change in dmioem.c)
VDSM output:
# vdsClient 0 getVdsHardwareInfo
systemFamily = 'To Be Filled By O.E.M.'
systemManufacturer = 'Supermicro'
systemProductName = 'H8DM8-2'
systemSerialNumber = '1234567890'
systemUUID = '00020003-0004-0005-0006-000700080009'
systemVersion = '1234567890'
Although the upstream version of python-dmidecode is able to deal with
improper DMI tables, I can't say what else will/will not behave correctly.

I believe that its maintainers would appriace a simple reproducer, that
does not involve ovirt or Vdsm. See if you can simplify the code in
def __leafDict(d):
ret = {}
for k, v in d.iteritems():
if isinstance(v, dict):
ret.update(__leafDict(v))
else:
ret[k] = v
return ret
def getAllDmidecodeInfo():
import dmidecode
myLeafDict = {}
for k in ('system', 'bios', 'cache', 'processor', 'chassis', 'memory'):
myLeafDict[k] = __leafDict(getattr(dmidecode, k)())
return myLeafDict
