I found a thread from March of this year where this was discussed and '-' is also included in that list.
Shouldn't the creation of a region with an invalid character raise an exception? I'm finding that I can create and list regions with a variety of non-alphanumeric characters. But I can only destroy a subset of those. It appears to be because some are created with quotes around the region name. E.g., service=Region, name=/good, type=Member service=Region, name="/not*good", type=Member The name lookup fails in the Destroy call. The rule that applied the quotes for /not*good during Create isn't applied in Destroy On Thu, Jun 30, 2016 at 12:06 PM, Michael Stolz <mst...@pivotal.io> wrote: > The only characters that should be used in Region names are > ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890_ > > -- > Mike Stolz > Principal Engineer, GemFire Product Manager > Mobile: 631-835-4771 > > On Thu, Jun 30, 2016 at 2:03 PM, Kevin Duling <kdul...@pivotal.io> wrote: > > > I'm working on a bug where it is not possible to delete a region that > has a > > hyphen in it.
