Generate Unique Security Group name

[kTipSSIoYv]

We have a way to generate uniuque hostname for vm_name. I want to achieve the same thing for AWS Security group. Right now we can't create a security group if the name exists already, so I want to append incrementing number.

I've created a security group method in Datastore and I want the security group names be like SG-${append_vm_name}-$n{3}.

This is what we use for unique vm_name. Is there a similar approach or code that I can reuse inside the security group method?

prov.update_vm_name("#{prov.options[:vm_target_name]}$n{3}",:update_request => false)

I'm trying a workaround by using random number generator to append to SG name.
