Hi,

in vSphere you can create a resource pool[1] and define to it access control
and delegation...

<quote>
Access control and delegation - When a top-level administrator makes a resource
pool available to a department-level administrator, that administrator can then
perform all virtual machine creation and management within the boundaries of the
resources to which the resource pool is entitled by the current shares,
reservation, and limit settings. Delegation is usually done in conjunction with
permissions setting
</quote>

Is it possible in oVirt? The usage here is to assing roles to a resource pool.
You could do this with different DC/cluster in oVirt, but it looks like it is
impossible if having _just_ one host (thus one DC/cluster).
