Hi mailing list,
I wonder if there is a way to limit host provisioning, for example
assigning this limit to a hostgroup
Cheers,
Hello,
if by limit you mean something like there can exist only 5 hosts in this hostgroup, there's nothing like that in core AFAIK. If you use some compute resource, chance is limits/quotas can be set there. If you don't need hard limits and you simply want prevent users from misusing resources, there's a plugin foreman expire hosts [1] that could help.

thanks for reply
yes, that is exactly what we need. My idea is that we can assign a hostgroup to a team so they can spin-up and destroy vmachines within specified limits.
since we are using different compute resources (ovirt and vmware) I was hoping to limit within foreman so I don't have to do it on target hypervisors
