I am trying to kickstart a server based on the UUID

When I look in the HP ilo the UUID is listed as 

368132USM53402MA

The server is an HP DL360

When I run dmidecode I get the following UUID

dmidecode |grep UUID

                UUID: 33363831-3334-5553-4D35-333430324D41

1. Why are they different?

2. Can I use the HPILO UUID to kickstart a box?

 

3. Should I be using the 32 bit number?

I believe the UUID should be a file in  

/tftpboot/pxeboot/pxelinux.cfg

 

4. What should be in this file?
