1- poweroff the machnie
2-ssh on esx
3-vi the vmx file
4- change the value of uuid.bios = ""
5-save
6- boot
the machine dont apply my change.
i tried with option : uuid.action = "keep", same result
tried changing the machine of esx, same result

i read a lot of post of people doin'it,
cant someone explain to me why it is not working on my machine.

1. remove VM from inventory
2. edit vmx-file and remove all lines with uuid-parameters
3. register VM again
on next lauch of the VM you should get a new uuid.
