Cause

The error occurs if the patch plan name is too long, that is, if it exceeds 64 bytes. The provisioning archive framework has a limit of 64 bytes for instance names, and therefore, it can accept only plan names that are lesser than 64 bytes. Typically, the instance name is formed using the patch plan name, the plan operation, and the time stamp (PlanName_PlanOperation_TimeStamp). If the entire instance name exceeds 64 bytes, then you are likely see this error.
