hwid changes on linux

VMProtect
1

HDD id changes on every reboot on linux. Vmprotect doesn’t accept serial number tied to this HWID afterwards.

Operating System: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS Kernel: Linux 4.15.0-58-generic Architecture: x86-64
VMProtect Ultimate v 3.3.1 (build 1086)

Output of udevadm doesn’t change from boot to boot
udevadm info --query=all --name=/dev/sda
uuid’s of hdds don’t change as well

Why is hdd id changing? What exactly changes? I can instruct linux users to make some additional actions but what?
Why VMProtectGetCurrentHWID returns only 3 hardware parameters?
If CPU=10 and other weights are 1, overall sum is < 12 so the key doesn’t pass as valid.
How do I solve this?

Couple examples:

2D3kAN00sTT/z8eb;
2D3kAN00sTQnU8jM;
2D3kAN00sTSPQuUK;
2D3kAN00sTS7NMFS;

[MACHINE0]
HOST=34B134DC
CPU=E43DD8
HDD=9BC7CFFC

[MACHINE1]
HOST=34B134DC
CPU=E43DD8
HDD=CCC85324

[MACHINE2]
HOST=34B134DC
CPU=E43DD8
HDD=AE5428C

[MACHINE3]
HOST=34B134DC
CPU=E43DD8
HDD=52C134B8

After some time current hdd id start to match one of previously occurred ids.
Maybe vmprotect takes the first hdd/partition or all of them and doesn’t sort them first? something like that.
I have 2 disks with 4 and 2 partitions.

Please help.
I’m a licensee and I still didn’t get any help.
Does anyone else protect linux binaries with vmprotect? tied to hardware?

Thank you for your report. We’ll check it soon.

Could you send us examples of the result of the command “ls /dev/disk/by-uuid”?

Here you go

estimap50@estimap50:~$ ls /dev/disk/by-uuid

As I understand this result does always change?

No it is always the same.
Here are the partitions. System is on sdb2

estimap50@estimap50:~$ lsblk -f
