• add option to enable/disbale the capacity and network sections (create dialog).
• Enable/disable save_template action on VM view, and list/select saved templates.
• Configure the actions for Cloud View (e.g. remove delete, or translate poweroff to undeploy)

Moved this issue to Sunstone category as vcenter driver can now handle vnets. As discussed in the comments this issue does not depends on the hypervisor but on the provisioning model.

In our use case, most of the time a user clone a VM template is to increase the capacity or run the VM on its own network, so cloud view is great for us, even if not completely used (#3414).

This could be a true / false or a list of authorized/denied capacities or networks, or two settings, a true / false flag, and when flag is true check a list, for example:

[...]

In which case, just switching the CAPACITY_SELECT value to FALSE disable all capacities.

For networks, if a user have the USE ACL on a shared network, but a VM has a built-in DHCP server, the admin could opt-in or opt-out the networks usable with this VM, for example:

[...]

The selection should include the _ENABLED list first and then exclude the _DISABLED list.

These parameters should be saved if the user save the VM.

The capacities could be set in the VM template but I see it more useful at user groups, for example:

- every body is authorized to use small-x1, small-x2 and medium-x2
- group need_power can use medium-x4 and large-x4
- group prod_admin can use large-x8

I understand that all of this is useless if the user can update its own VM templates:

1. user clone a VM
2. user update the VM template to remove the VM limitations

but the per group limitations stays
