Bug Description
The duplicate computer alert in Landscape only checks for unique hostnames. In some scenarios this can cause false positives (for example IoT deployments) where the hardware is unique and distinct but the hostname defaults to the same value (usually Ubuntu).
The duplicate alert should be more robust and look at hardware-specific indicators of identity.

From my experience the issue is not just in false positives in the alert, but functionality of the Landscape UI actually doesn't work properly if you have duplicate computers (for example, you cannot install snaps).
