Description of problem:
I was trying to validate the hostgroup form and found that if we enter more than 245 chars in 'Name' field of hostgroup, It raises PGError:

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create hostgroup with more than 245 char in name
2.
3.

Actual results:
Operation FAILED: PGError: ERROR: value too long for type character varying(255)

Expected results:
User should be allowed to enter 255 char in name field and if it exceeds 255 char then UI should throw a clean validation error instead of PGError
