Description

Domain Administrators are allowed to define Disk and Compute Offerings for their Domain.

This can be harmful, if storage tags are used.
The domain admin cannot select the storage or host tag in the ui resulting in an empty tag field.

As a result, instantiated root or data disks will be placed on any available storage backend or the VM will be placed on any available host. This may collide with the allocation strategies that the root admin defined in his allocation concept.

Either we should allow the definition of tags or disallow domain admins to define own offerings. (A global or account config option to define this behavior would be an option). The current scenario allows a circumvention of the defined tagging scheme.
