Has anybody experienced the ARS Host ID changing each time the server is rebooted. This behavior is happens with 7.5 FCS and patch 1. It is a new Windows 2008 server on VMware ESX. I checked with our server team and they said that there is no way that the application should be able to see anything other than the MAC address that VMware assigns the server, which doesn’t change after a reboot.
Here are examples of the Host IDs that I have seen in the last few days. The interesting thing is that only the first 4 characters change each time. 30F620524153 3A7B20524153 AAF920524153 7C5720524153 Does anybody know if the Host ID for 7.5 is composed of something other than the MAC address?
