Hi Maor,
it seems you did not test properly.
You need 2 DCs with a template in each datacenter.
rename one of them to match the other.
It will fail, quoting Nir from my Bugzilla entry:

I really don't understand the logic behind making these names
unique on a global level.
There are many easily thought use cases where you want the
same template name in different DCs, now I will have to juggle
with dc-prefixes.
I really hope this gets fixed up for 3.6
I Sven
You are right there is no option to have same template name for different DCs
The reason for that is that both VMs and Templates are stored in vm_static table
We distinguish between VMs/Template according to the entity_type column value.
If you think that this is important please issue a RFE for it.
Thanks
Eli
Thanks for your fast replies anyway.
