I also think it is only relevant on attaching a disk to a VM, as the other use-cases are simpler: 1. Attach disk to VM - would require having permissions on the disk (whether it is shared, direct lun or floating) 2. Add disk to VM - would only require quota (if enforced). 3. Create disk (i.e., floating/shared disk) - would only require quota (if enforced).
