Alona Kaplan has submitted this change and it was merged. ( https://gerrit.ovirt.org/79116 ) Change subject: backend: remove character restrictions from network names ...................................................................... backend: remove character restrictions from network names Currently, oVirt limits the names of its networks to 15 alphanumeric characters. This limitation dates back to the ages where all networks were VM network, all were implemented by a Linux bridge, and the same name was used to identify the network and the Linux bridge implementing it on each host. That has to change. 15 characters are not enough for humans; spaces, and other special characters are visually useful, and non-English speaking users would love to use their native alphabet in network names. For this reason network names are allowed to consist of 256 Unicode characters. If a Linux bridge is created, the name is created from the network name, if it is suitable, or from the network's uuid.
