Perhaps host installation script should perform this automatically if it
cannot find a unique ID?
(In the case where it's not an issue of a non-unique ID, but rather no ID
whatsoever, which I believe is the common case, though we have seen vendors
supplying the same UUID across their BIOS for all their servers in the past
as well).

This should have been implemented within the replacement of vdsm-reg and the usage of the
new host deploy protocol.
Although keep in mind that in stateless mode, such machine will register using new id each
time booted even if not approved, filling database with phantom hosts.
