How to change docker engine ID?

[quickwind]

We have a ESXi env, and we setup one VM and installed docker, then we clone it into multiple VMs, but we found the docker engine ID is the same for all the docker engines, and couldn't find a way to change it. This prevents us to use swarm to create cluster properly. Anything we missed?

docker info output:

I ran into something similar. I was able to fix this by deleting our docker key.json file then restarting the daemon. For me the file was in /etc/docker/key.json

Thank you @devinwatkins for the answer, didn't know how the ID was generated, i guess i must have cloned my SD card and forgot that
