Description

As reported by Florian, on a dom0 the uuid is not available, and so inventory is invalid and fails on a dom0

Indeed, command xenstore-read vm does not return what is expected (at least on recent system)

Suggested solution is to run

 "RUDDERUUID"     string => execresult("/usr/sbin/dmidecode -s system-uuid", "noshell");

also on dom0, as it should return the exact same value as the dmidecode

If it is indeed the same value, this should be a really fast to fix

Setting to critical, as the only workaround is to patch the policies
