This wishlist bug has been open a year without any activity. I'm going to move it to "Opinion / Wishlist", which is an easily-obtainable queue of older requests that have come on.
In case you want to work on that, consider writing a blueprints [1] and spec [2]. I'll recommend to read [3] if not yet done. The effort to implement the requested feature is then driven only by the blueprint (and spec).

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1326625 Title: SMBIOS returns host uuid as computer system id on VMs with libvirt/KVM Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Opinion Bug description: Version: nova-2013.1.4 (Grizzly) Driver: libvirt Hypervisor: KVM Host OS: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Description: To get instance UUID, I tried to use "wmic CSPRODUCT" command on a Windows guest, but the result was different from the instance uuid. See below: https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py#L3099 Libvirt driver used get_host_uuid() in nova.virt.libvirt.driver and it returns the host uuid, so the VMs on a host get same computer system product id from SMBIOS. I think each VM should have an unique value as computer system product id.
