I don't have any specific tool in mind, but I'd suggest that you really
need to run the tool on only one of the machines, and run a separate
tool on them all that assures that they are identical, presumably made
that way by wiping each and copying from a master

That assumes the hardware is close enough to identical to make this
practical.
