+1 about Jay option. BTW, as nova and glance all allow same name for instance or image, So name seems not need to be unique, it is OK I think.

Perhaps we can borrow some iead from nova, the concept in magnum can be mapped to nova as following: 1) instance => bay 2) flavor => baymodel So I think that a solution might be as following: 1) Make name as a MUST for both bay/baymodel 2) Update magnum client to use following style for bay-create and baymodel-create: DO NOT add "--name" option You should decide whether name would be unique -- either globally or within a tenant. Note that Nova's instance names (the display_name model field) are *not* unique, neither globally nor within a tenant. I personally believe this was a mistake. The decision affects your data model and constraints. Yes, my thinking is to enable Magnum has same behavior with nova. The name can be managed by the end user and the end user can specify the name as they want, it is end user's responsibility to make sure there are no duplicate names. Actually, I think that the name do not need to be unique but UUID.
