Martin Kletzander 2016-02-16 11:12:06 UTC Doc Text Cause: Systemd introduced strict requirements for machine names.

Consequence: Domains with non-ASCII characters or long names could not be started.

Fix: Libvirt introduced new escaping mechanism.

Result: Domain with any possible name can now be started.

Doc Text Cause: Systemd introduced strict requirements for machine names.

Consequence: Domains with non-ASCII characters or long names could not be started.

Fix: Libvirt introduced new escaping mechanism.

Result: Domain with any possible name can now be started.
In a prior update, systemd introduced strict requirements for machine names. As an unintended effect, this caused starting virtual domains with non-ASCII characters in their name or with a long name to fail. With this update, libvirt introduces an escaping mechanism that allows such virtual machines to start as expected.
