Shit, I got it. Sorry
The problem is that I was accessing to the v4 disk-attachment id and I
was getting everything quite messed up. I was doing all of this while
creating a machine, so I was trying to rename the disk at the same time
it's being created.
I'll delete all the "if ($ovirt_major == 3)" I have in my code. If I
have any problem I'll let you know.
Thank you
If what you want to do is set the name of the disk for a VM that you are
creating then you can just set it when adding the disk:
POST /ovirt-engine/api/vms/123/diskattachments
<disk_attachment>
<disk>
<name>yourfavoritename</name>
...
</disk>
...
</disk_attachment>
That way you don't need to modify it later.
Also, in general, try to wait till the objects are completely created
before trying to use or update them. For disks in particular, it is good
idea to repeatedly retrieve the disk till the 'status' is 'OK':
(This is an example from the Python SDK, but you get the idea. There are
SDKs for Ruby and Java as well.)
Finally, if you get a 500 error then there is most probably a bug. The
API should never return that, even if you try to do something that
doesn't make sense it should respond with a reasonable error message. If
you keep getting that 500 error please share the details.

That should work. Can you please check if you get any useful message in
/var/log/ovirt-engine/server.log or /var/log/ovirt-engine/engine.log?
