And the platform also generates event messages for the user and the administrator. See Events table#Workloadtable in the “Workload” section.
The platform optionally displays allocation limits on the dashboard for users with the appropriate privileges. It marks soft limits in orange and hard limits in red.
...
To set enterprise allocation limits:
Go to Users → edit an enterprise
Go to Allocation limits
Complete the dialog.

In public cloud regions, the platform does not use repository (catalogue) features or limits.
Limit | Checked at | Description |
|---|---|---|
Memory | Deployment | Total amount of RAM that may be used by VMs including hardware profiles assigned to VMs |
Virtual CPUs | Deployment | Total number of virtual CPU cores that may be used by VMs including hardware profiles assigned to VMs |
Local hard disk | Deployment | Total size of hard disk that may be used by VMs on hypervisor datastores and in public cloud providers |
External storage | Configuration | Total size of external storage that may be assigned to VMs |
VLANs | Configuration | Total number of private VLANs that may be defined. Note that a private VLAN is automatically created for every VDC, so this limit may restrict the number of VDCs that users can create |
Public /floating/NAT IPs | Configuration | Total number of public IPs, floating IPs (in public cloud), and NAT IPs that may be used |
Repository | Operations | Total size of NFS Repository space that may be used for the Catalogue including templates and instances (but not conversions). See Manage the datacenter catalogue? |
Virtual machines | Deployment | Total number of VMs that users can deploy in the location using their allowed resources |
DR protected virtual machines | Operations | Total number of VMs that users can protect with disaster recovery protection. |

Set a default role to limit tenant access to VDCs in a location
To give users different levels of access to virtual datacenters (VDCs) in specific providers or datacenters, administrators can assign a default role (with fewer privileges than user roles) for all VDCs in a location.
So this is a default value for the VDC role that you can set when you create or edit a VDC, that the administrator can later edit.
To control access for users of a tenant in a provider or cloud location with a default role:
Go to Users → create or edit an enterprise → Datacenters → edit a provider or an allowed location → Defaults
Select a default Role
Continue configuring the provider or location or click Accept
At the provider level, the platform will copy the default role to all provider regions. The default role for a region will apply to all new virtual datacenters in the region.

Privileges: Manage enterprise reserved servers |
Before you begin:
Check that the physical machine is not already reserved or running VMs deployed by a different enterprise.
To reserve physical machines for an enterprise:
Go to Users → edit enterprise → Reservations
The platform will display a list of Available servers (Physical Machines) that are in the enterprise's Allowed datacenters. (See Allow a tenant to access datacenters and cloud providers).
Select the physical machine(s) in their Datacenter/Rack and drag them into the Reserved servers list
To restrict the enterprise so that it may only deploy on the physical machines reserved for it (and not on any others)
Mark the checkbox to Only use 'Reserved Servers'
