Description of problem:

If customer uses name like redhat#1 in vm names on Vmware ESX during the conversion to KVM the name will change to redhat|231

Example:

# virt-v2v -ic esx://192.168.1.13/?no_verify=1 -op default --bridge virbr0 rhel5.5#1

** HEAD https://192.168.1.13/folder/New%20Virtual%20Machine/New%20Virtual%20Machine-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=Storage1
==> 401 Unauthorized
** HEAD https://192.168.1.13/folder/New%20Virtual%20Machine/New%20Virtual%20Machine-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=Storage1
==> 200 OK (1s)
** GET https://192.168.1.13/folder/New%20Virtual%20Machine/New%20Virtual%20Machine-flat.vmdk?dcPath=ha-datacenter&dsName=Storage1
==> 200 OK (1481s)
