We use the aggregation and branch titles as unique identifiers. This has lead to issues when the name is larger than the file system's limit (usually 255 characters).
This werk addresses this issue with some validation during the compilation step. An error message will now be shown when an identifier exceeds the character limit. There is nothing for a user to do except to be aware that they should avoid using long identifiers.
Note: this restriction will be resolved in Checkmk 2.4 and later versions. See the related werk which addresses this issue by introducing identifier hashing.
