Touch and edit /usr/share/freeswitch/scripts/uniqueid.lua

Write this to the file:

local server_id = argv[1] or '001' -- defaults system id to '001' if you
don't pass an arg
stream:write(server_id .. '-' .. os.time() .. '.' ..
math.random(1000000,9999999))

Then use this in your XML dialplan:

<action application="set" data="server_id=003"/>

<action application="set" data="UNIQUEID=${lua(uniqueid.lua
${server_id})}"/>

Now you have a UNIQUEID channel variable in the format you requested.
