Description Corey Welton 2012-02-13 13:21:43 EST

Description of problem:
Although we can rename an existing system already registered to katello to one using multibyte characters, manual creation throws an error when trying to use such characters.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Using subscription-manager, register a system to katello
2.  Systems > $system > System Properties
3.  Edit the Name field and replace the existing name with "红豆"; verify this works.
4.  Systems > +New System
5.  Attempt to create a new system with the name "不好"
6.  View results.
  
Actual results:
* System name cannot contain most special characters.
* System not created

Expected results:
* Parity with the ability to rename an existing system.

Additional info:
Workaround:  create system using standard alphanumeric characters ("buhao") and then edit that system to replace the name with multibyte ("不好"), per steps 1-3 above.
