Okay, I'm taking Groovy as an example first.. after installing.. I had: /etc/nvme/hostid and /etc/nvme/hostnqn correctly generated. After removing nvme package, I had:
dpkg: warning: while removing nvme-cli, directory '/usr/lib/systemd/system' not empty so not removed dpkg: warning: while removing nvme-cli, directory '/etc/nvme' not empty so not removed which is a good sign, it kept my local uuid and nqn: [rafaeldtinoco@groovy ~]$ cat /etc/nvme/host* 5e430ded-0dae-4dd1-8dc5-b3f490658e3a nqn.2014-08.org.nvmexpress:uuid:a1e6adf3-9213-4929-833a-ce44226e74e4 Installing package again and contents are the same... remove it and wipe those files.. I got new files: [rafaeldtinoco@groovy ~]$ cat /etc/nvme/host* d76c6ba9-5a5d-4dc9-9dde-698c166af622 nqn.2014-08.org.nvmexpress:uuid:5d6e5dc5-1799-4cc5-b116-c710dca399c7 So I believe this is the correct behavior and it is fine not to worry about existing hostid uuids in Groovy as it is our -devel release.
