naming images/root dir trees of ct's and vm's / renaming instances

$

I previously posted about renaming instances from numbers (100, 101, etc) to names. Got no reply :/

One lesser solution is to rename the root trees for the CT's and images of VM's. So I've done
Code:

mv 100 name; ln -s name 100
in /var/lib/vz/private, I think that'll work.

What'd be nice if in /etc/pve/nodes/* that the 100.conf was a symlink to name.conf as well. I work on names, not numbers. Specific clients have specific needs and specific names are easier to remember than ID numbers. Especially when I go through a backup and look at their dirs.

However, I cant symlink in /etc/pve at all (due to xattrs? but lsattr wont even run in there), so i cant do that with the .conf files.

Any suggestions?
