        By default we could work on a restrictive mode wherein if a domain(or a 
subdomain) has resources dedicated to him/her then he/she will be forced to use 
those resources only. Once the compute on dedicated resource are exhausted then 
further deployVM calls will fail. We can introduce an option in compute 
offering to relax this restriction wherein the said domain can fallback to 
shared resources once he exhausts his resources. I am open to more ideas!

To start we could look at any future deployVM calls to use the dedicated 
resources while the existing VMs continue on the shared resources. This I think 
we give a nice transition path for existing customers of CloudStack.

Please let us know your thoughts.
