After offloading a shelved instance the freed compute resources are
still accounted.
I think it makes sense to make this behavior configurable. We often have
the request to not account the freed compute resources after an
instances was offloaded to be able to spawn new instances or to
unshelved offloaded instances even the assigned compute resource quota
was archieved.
Because the instance are shelved and offloaded they do not occupy
compute resource and it is often safe to allow the freed compute
resources for other inststances. Of coure it has to be checked if there
are enough free compute resource when trying to unshelve an offloaded
instance.
What do you thin about this use case? If it make sense to you I want to
propose to write a spec for this feature.
Christian.
