Summary
Add support for windows machines to the flb_utils function
flb_utils_get_machine_id
using the MachineGuid registry key inHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography
.This is required for better fleet support since the default behavior in
flb_utils_get_machine_id
is to return a new UUID. This will lead to a new fleet configuration directory being created each time a fleet is invoked on a windows machine.Enter
