[Hawkular-dev] accounts, tenants, the agent

ManageIQ has the notion of "Zone" which is also used to group servers.

I.e.: Zone "Default" has 1 EVM Server, 2 Providers, etc.

Sometimes when I'm cathing up with ManageIQ code I wonder if our tenant concept in Hawkular maps with this Zone concept.

If it matches, also I wonder who is responsible to assign the tenant (the ownership of tenant belongs to the agent? to hawkular server ? ManageIQ ?), how/when (at agent installation? at hawkular installation? at ManageIQ provider registration ?).

It is still an open point but good to discuss about it to see possible and cascade implications (i.e. mixed tenants are possible ? In which scenarios ?)
