Just for archives. VMWare Resource Pool-like feature:

* create new quota
* add consumer (an user) to quota
* assign the quota permissions (an user)
  - UserVmManager
  - UserRole
* assign the DB permissions (an user)
  - VmCreator

With this setup it seems the user can "inside" his quota
create new VM, new VM inherit valid quota name, and cannot
see other VMs outside of his "quota pool".

I will see more during testings.
