Good question, Mitja.
@Gilad:
1. Does the 'VmCreator' Role contain the 'consume-quota' action? so when
granting "VmCreator"
on Data Center "DC1" to user "User1", "User1" can
automatically consume any quota defined
in "DC1" (including, for example, "TemplateQuota", in Mitja's
case)?
2. Related to both your previous reply and my previous reply: Can a user associate a
CPU/RAM
Quota to a VM that he is now *creating*, even if he doesn't have consume-quota
permissions
on that CPU/RAM Quota? In Mitja's case, he attempted to create a VM associated with
both
"TemplateQuota" and "UserQuota", while the user (maybe - depends on
answer to 1) didn't
have permission to consume "TemplateQuota", and the VM creation succeeded. Is
that OK?
[if the answer to both questions is "no", there is a chance that Mitja
discovered a bug]

Subject: Re: [Users] Quota for VMs created from templates
In addition to the described setup:
The user was also given a permission on the data center with the role
VmCreator.
The user is not listed as a consumer of TemplateQuota, but they have an
inherited role VmCreator in the permissions tab.
Could this permission be the reason the user can create and run VMs that
are associated with TemplateQuota?
Regards,
Mitja
