[ovirt-users] Mechanism to make VM creation fail if the cluster has insufficient resources to run it

Hi All

My team is currently building an application based on the oVirt REST
API, and we noticed that it is possible to create a VM with resources
(i.e. RAM or CPU) that are not physically available in the cluster.
Running the VM will fail with an appropriate error message, but for
our use case it would be highly desirable that the VM creation fails.
I haven't found any setting that enables this behavior, but I was
wondering if one is hidden somewhere or there is a simple workaround
to make VM creation fail if resources are not available to run it.

Thanks
David
