-----------------------------------------------
Summary: The listVirtualMachine API does not do an exact match
when using the 'name' parameter
Key: CLOUDSTACK-6555
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-6555
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: API
Affects Versions: 4.3.0
Reporter: Sander van Harmelen
When making a call to the listVirtualMachines API using the 'name' to retrieve
the ID of a specific virtual machine, you do not get only 1 result where the
virtual machine name is an exact match of the value of the 'name' parameter you
provided, but instead is a list of results which contains all virtual machines
who's name contains the value provided for the 'name' parameter.
Do the 'name' parameter behaves exactly like the 'keyword' parameter for this
API call, making it hard to get a single ID for a single machine without doing
additional processing on the API result, which our own tools and scripts do not
expect hence they are broken now.
