Hi, I'm new to this so I might be wrong, but I'm going to try to give a
few answers below... hopefully someone will correct me if needed.

I guess you have tried including the ip in the NIC section of the VM
template? And had a look
to http://opennebula.org/documentation:rel2.0:vgg
NIC = [
network = "name_of_the_virtual_network", #Optional, XEN, KVM
ip = "ip_address",#Optional, XEN, KVM
bridge = "name_of_bridge_to_bind_if", #Optional, XEN, KVM
target = "device_name_to_map_if", #Optional, KVM
mac = "HW_address",#Optional, XEN, KVM
script = "path_to_script_to_bring_up_if"] #Optional, KVM
You might need to use the contextualization feature as well:

Another way may be to configure your guests directly with the fixed IP
address you want, but this is not so elegant as letting opennebula do it
for you, of course.

Not too difficult but it can get tricky the first time. You may need to
look on
http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking
if you're using kvm, to check that libvirt is correctly setup for that.
Good luck,
