As far as i know you can just define
Start id
End id
Via datacenter - options - next free vmid...
This is valid for a cluster or a single mode installation if i am not wrong

What I understand is that once a VM is created and has an ID assigned some admin with higher privileges needs to assign said VM to a resource pool so that it than can be managed by the respective group.
