    VMware: ensure that provider networks work for type 'portgroup'
    
    When an existing portgroup is used as a provider network the
    vmware_nsx NSX|V and DVS plugins will validate that the name
    of the network is the same name as the actual portgroup. This
    name is used when searching for the portgroup. Using the network
    UUID will not match here as that is the network UUID.
    
    A provider network can be a regular port group or a NSX virtual
    wire.

Title:
  VMware: unable to launch an instance on a 'portgroup' provider network

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The vmware_nsx NSX|V and DVS plugins enable a admin to create a
  provide network that points to an existing portgroup.

  One is uanble to spin up and instance on these networks.

  The trace is as follows:

  This is due to the fact that the validation for the network selection
  is done according the the network UUID (which is the name of the port
  group). In the case of importing a existing port group this actually
  needs to be the name of the portgroup.

  The NSX|V and DVS plugins enforce that the name of the network needs
  to match the name of the existing port group
