Using uuidd
-----------
The uuidd is a solution to guarantee unique time-based UUIDs. In the
past there was the problem that UUIDs created by libuuid have not been
guaranteed to be unique if you run multiple processes/threads which
create lots of UUIDs simultaneously. In order to use this daemon you
have to run this daemon with SUID/SGID bit set:
1. Modify your local permissions setting by adding the following
line to your /etc/permissions.local
/usr/sbin/uuidd uuidd:uuidd 6755
2. Set the permissions with
$ chkstat --set /etc/permissions.local
3. enable the service uuidd either in YaST or with
$ insserv uuidd
The damon is designed to run on demand by default, this means
it is started automatically by libuuid when needed and it
terminates by default after 5 minutes of inactivity.
However if you wish to run the daemon permanently you can
set the parameter UUIDD_ON_DEMAND_ONLY in /etc/sysconfig/uuidd
to "no".
Note, the damon is not needed in general to create time-based
UUIDs, it is only needed to assure the uniqueness of UUIDs
when creating lots of them in a short amount of time.
