Hallo Guido,

no, sys_guid() *MUST* return a *globally unique identifier* that means
calling sys_guid on one Oracle Server MUST *NEVER* return the same value as calling sys_guid anytime on the same (or another) server. otherwise you can blame Oracle for a buggy implementation.

there is no need to concatenate this with a sequence. I don't understand why you want to do that.
