Title:
  novaclient: security groups, should fail when creating security groups
  with duplicate name

Status in python-novaclient:
  Won't Fix
Status in python-novaclient package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When creating a security group using the novaclient.security_groups
  create API, there is not check which avoids creating security group if
  one already exist. This later on poses a problem when trying to
  delete, find the security group, which results in a NoUniqueMatch
  exception as below.

  It would be better if the API returned an error when creating a
  security group with the same name.
