[BUG] Create a VM with name containing multiple brackets

A VM containing multiple brackets in its name fails to create.

To Reproduce:

On VMware vCenter 6.0 and 6.5, create a VM a call it "[TEST1][TEST2]zone-srv-instance". The VM creates and the task hangs at 100%. Then it appears on "Dicovered VM". Wait 30min and the task times out. The created VM is automatically deleted but the discovered VM (with the same name) still remains in the folder.

You also have a side-effect which is an alarm on duplicate MAC address, but it seems obvious since two entities are seen by vCenter.

Regards
