Résolution
Following the steps below:
- Edit Agent Properties, set "Host name override" to your desired hostname; in this case was "issuedhost.foglight.com" , and select "Collect System ID" to false .
- Edit fglam config file $FGLAM_HOME\state\default\config\client.config and set following: system.id.enabled = false;
- Restart FglAM and check the dashboard again.
This is something related to the Operating System. Sometimes when a virtual machine is cloned it keeps the same system id as an existing one or do not generate this system Id causing this type of problems.

Make sure that each cloned VMWare is having a unique bios.uuid. The bios.uuid can be found in the *.vmx file.
The VMWare knowledge base provides the steps to change the bios.uuid in article 1002403. If further help is needed, please contact the VMWare support team.
