Description Sharon Gratch 2017-03-30 11:59:42 UTC
Description of problem:

oVirt fails to load list of VMs for importing from VMware when querying a VMware vCenter that includes at least one of the following special chars within the VMware-datacenter, VMware-Folder or VMware-cluster:
"%", "/", "\", "&", "+", "=", "?"

The same reproduced when running virsh or virt-v2v from command line to that VMware vCenter.

For details, please see depended BZ 1373863

Comment 1 Michal Skrivanek 2017-03-31 07:19:38 UTC
I do not see a reason to track it in oVirt, the libvirt bug is clear, being targeted to a minor RHEL version - not a zstream, hence we will not require a specific version in vdsm spec, there is nothing extra to be tested on oVirt side since the characters are passed through to libvirt and as soon as it does work in libvirt it shall work in oVirt
