Handle a request for host allocation in a moderated cloud

A Lab Management project member can request the allocation of a host from a moderated cloud. As the administrator, it's up to you to approve or reject such requests.

When a project member submits a request, Lab Management domain (or project) administrators can see the request in their My Pending Approvals. The request stays in the system for the number of days specified in the cloud's Allocation Request Time to Live setting.
  1. Click My Pages > My Pending Approvals. A list of requests, with information about the requesting user, cloud and configuration details for each, is displayed.
  2. Select a request and click Evaluate to verify the available resources.
  3. Indicate how you want to deal with the request.
    • Click Approve to approve the request and allow the host to be provisioned.
    • Click Disapprove to deny the request.
The project member receives an email notification when the request is approved or denied. If the request is approved, the host with the requested configuration is provisioned.
