Rene, this is probably not going to solve your problem, but I use this
trick for other use cases.  You can setup more than one range.  ACS seems
to always exhaust one range before moving on to the next range.  If it is a
new install, then you can do a range with only 2 IPs in it and make it
first.  Since the first two IPs which will be provisioned when ACS is setup
is the SSVM and CPVM, they will automatically take the two IPs from that
special range.

I am pretty sure I have tested this.  Later when other IPs have been used
from the other range, if you destroy the SSVM or CPVM, they will come back
up on one of the two IPs that they were on before because they will be free
again and they will be used first again.  If your system is really active,
then you will be in a race condition while the SSVM and CPVM get bounced to
get the same IPs back.

Anyway, I figured I would mention it because it may be a workaround you can
make use of.  I do this in dev/staging environments which need real public
IPs, but I don't need the SSVM and CPVM to have real public IPs.  This lets
me preserve two real public IPs by using private IPs for that first range
for the SSVM and CPVM.
