RGM names fall into the following five categories.
resource group names
resource type names
resource names
property names
enumeration literal names
Except for resource type names, all names must comply with the following rules.
must be in ASCII
must start with a letter
can contain upper and lowercase letters, digits, dashes (-), and underscores (_)
must not exceed 255 characters
A resource type name can be a simple name (specified by the Resource_type property in the RTR file) or a complete name (specified by the Vendor_id and Resource_type properties in the RTR file). When you specify both of these properties, the RGM inserts a period between the Vendor_id and Resource_type to form the complete name. For example, if Vendor_id=SUNW and Resource_type=sample, the complete name is SUNW.sample. This instance is the only case where a period is a legal character in an RGM name.
