Hello,

Currently VM_MAX_NAMELEN is set to 32 and thus the maximum length of =
virtual machine is 31 characters.
We=E2=80=99re building product that uses bhyve to run virtual machines =
and we wanted to use UUIDs as names.
UUID with hyphens has 36 characters and without it has 32 characters. =
Can this limit be increased to 33 and=20
ideally to 37 or more characters?
For comparison qemu-kvm+libvirt allow for virtual machines with names =
that are over 240 chars.

=E2=80=94
Regards,
Mateusz Kwiatkowski=
