Description (last modified by Frank Mehnert)

I try to change uuid, sethduuid says yes, changed, but in reality and proven by dumphdinfo the uuid has not changed.

Please see below, dumphdinfo shows before sethduui: 2c5ca471-5bdf-4250-b085-b9a2cbc0f250

sethduuid claims to change it to d397030d-ae38-4377-8f63-ed784ad4080f

But dumphdinfo after sethdduuid shows the same uuid as before: 2c5ca471-5bdf-4250-b085-b9a2cbc0f250

Host OS: Windows 7
Virtualbox: 4.3.12

I can confirm this behavior if the GUI is running in parallel.
