Subject: [PATCH] esx: Ignore malformed host UUID from BIOS
Etienne Gosset reported that libvirt fails to connect to his ESX
server because it failed to parse its malformed host UUID, that
contains a additional space and lacks one hexdigit in the last
group:
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx- xxxxxxxxxxx
Don't treat this as a fatal error, just ignore it.
