I am not sure what is the state of this discussion, but I would like to support the addition of ENTRY and EXIT points to the diagram.
Done. Attached, along with OmniGraffle source.
Moreover, if we do not assume that the submitted VMs have to run immediately or not at all, I would like to suggest that we need a "Pending" state in the diagram. The new submitted VMs remain in this state until there are resources available. That could be the "DEFINED" state or the DMTF "INITIAL" state.
"Pending" is ambiguous. "Resuming" is pending, so is "suspending". There's various takes on "defined" and "initial" too... for example if you were to implement something like the Q-Layer^WSun Cloud API web interface on top of OCCI then you would likely start by creating and linking a bunch of objects, none of which would be useful until associated with actual resources - it would be like a shell/skeleton.
Perhaps this is something worth taking into consideration, though as I'd rather not impose too much on implementors it probably belongs in the registry.
