If VM Name is: 'Zabbix-Server', the template will suceed and create normally.

The steps to reproduce the bug

We can argue about that @btzq . For now names with spaces are not supported. Effort needs to be put in to support them. I created a label component:error-handling just today… ;)

this ^ implies either implement the feature or fix the “error-handling” bug. I really don’t care either way, just to explain my tagging.
