Hi Parker,

>From the minutes of this week's TSC call:
http://meetbot.opnfv.org/meetings/opnfv-meeting/2018/opnfv-meeting.2018-08-21-12.52.html
they've deferred the agreement till next week.

Assuming there is an agreement, and LaaS is open to all LFN members, I
agree we will run into a scarcity of resources if we don't set some
restrictions upon users/projects.

So the question is, should this restriction be on a per-user, per-group,
per-lfn-project basis, or some combination thereof?

With 48 x86 and 14 aarch64 machines, we can have in total 8 Pharos
compliant PODs (6 servers) booked at once (with 4 extra servers).

Perhaps we restrict bookings to 1 per-user, 4 per-lfn-project, with a
max of 2-weeks per-booking? You would have to do some calculations of
which groups/projects a user belongs to in order to figure out when the
quota is reached. This will also be somewhat hard as the limit might
depend on either the number of servers in total, or the number of PODs
and that would have to be a separate calculation

I'm not sure what the answer is here, but I wanted to respond to at
least keep the discussion rolling.

Regards,
Trevor Bramwell
