STATUS_VID_INVALID_OBJECT_NAME

Invalid VID object name

STATUS_VID_INVALID_OBJECT_NAME applies to the name used for a VID partition or message queue. The name is part of the host object namespace used by the virtualization stack, not necessarily the friendly VM display name shown in management tools.

Separate invalid-name problems from not-found and duplicate-object problems. Invalid name means the supplied identifier itself could not be used; STATUS_VID_PARTITION_NAME_NOT_FOUND and STATUS_VID_PARTITION_ALREADY_EXISTS describe different namespace states.

VID rejected the supplied name as invalid for a partition or message-queue object before normal create or lookup processing could proceed. Capture the exact host-side name produced by the management component and distinguish malformed naming from the separate too-long, already-exists, and not-found statuses.

What to inspect

Capture the exact object name passed to the host operation, including generated suffixes and escaping.
Check for truncation, invalid characters, stale configuration data, or mismatched VM import metadata.
Compare with the message-queue and partition length-specific statuses when the name is syntactically valid but too long.
