                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-2056
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2056
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Management Server
            Reporter: Prachi Damle
            Assignee: Prachi Damle
             Fix For: 4.2.0


Currently in a CloudStack deployment, only one of these planners can be used 
for all VM deployments. The global parameter 'vm.allocation.algorithm' decides 
which planner will be used.

However there could be a need to be able to choose different planning 
strategies within a single CS deployment. So letting Admin choose a deployment 
planner for a set of VMs will be helpful.

To enable this, proposal is:
   1)  Expose deployment planner as part of a ServiceOffering API. By default, 
the value can be set to the default CS FirstFitPlanner, but admin can override 
it and set some other strategy as per needs.
   2) Add a resource reservation mechanism to let deployment planners co-exist
