Bryan, You can use Tags to tell CloudStack where you would 'like' it to put resources, but tags are best endeavours.
If you have two clusters, but the one you want to place resources on using Tags is full, CloudStack will simply allocate the resources to the other cluster.

If I tag a cluster or a primary storage that is related to a particular cluster - then I could also use the same tag when deploying Instances to make sure only certain Instances go to a certain cluster (or primary storage)? Is that right? On Sun, Mar 17, 2013 at 8:47 AM, Nitin Mehta <nitin.me...@citrix.com<mailto:nitin.me...@citrix.com>> wrote: Something close to this is already being worked on. These talk about dedicating resources to accounts/domain. See if you can find a flag to "restrict" them as well. Or you can create an enhancement for the same https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/FS+for+VMs+on+hardwa re+dedicated+to+a+specific+account https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Dedicated+Resources+ -+Public+IP+Addresses+and+VLANs+per+Tenant Dedicating templates should be possible by using launchPermissions api for templates.

Am I correct in this statement? Is there a way to restrict users to a specific Zone? Assuming I trust my users and just give them a specific zone to use - when I setup the zone can I just use the same secondary storage as others zones are do I need a new set of secondary storages as well? -Bryan -- Regards, Kirk Jantzer c: (678) 561-5475 This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
