Hello,

I try to create a domain with Japanese name encoded in utf-8 as in the
config file. The xen version I use is 3.2.0. I get the
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position
0-1: ordinal not in range(128) in the Xend.log(Excerpt pasted below)
I have earlier tried this in xen version 3.0.3 as well. I searched the
user list and google and could not find a lead.

I could not find anything in the xen users list for UnicodeEncodeError.

Please help.

Thanks
Ramachandran
