You can also set the resource limit for the users as 0 (change the max.template limit in the global config). This would not allow them to submit any template or create template from volume/snapshot or copy template. In case you want to give permissions to specific users you can manage through this

There is one glaring problem with preventing users from creating templates, you also remove the ability to restore a VM from a snapshot as this requires the creation of a new template. Regards Geoff Higginbottom CTO / Cloud Architect D: +44 20 3603 0542 | S: +44 20 3603 0540| M: +447968161581

Ah yes, elastic storage... yes, you can create a new custom disk, but wouldn't it be great to be able to grow a virtual HD in size dynamically. Right now if a dude with a an OS is using 2 40gb drives and need to grow one of them, they need to add a thrid drive, set it to some fix size, and then use
