[Freeswitch-dev] Core-UUID - is it possible to make it persistent?

It's a UUID of the instance rather than the server (hostname is probably
sufficient for that). That said there probably isn't a reason you couldn't
set a persistent UUID yourself in a config file.

anyway to configure it to not change?


Currently no. It's generated anew on every start in
switch_core.c:1701:switch_core_init()

It occurs after the switch.conf.xml file is loaded (line 1679) so it would
be trivial to make a patch that reads it from that file and generates a
random one if it hasn't been set in the config file.

It'd be more involved to generate a random one on the first startup that's
then remembered on future startups. That should be possible too by caching
it in a local file, as with freeswitch.serial.
