[] If user cross the resource limit set for his/her account, CloudStack throws a message to the user that limit of this resource type has been exceeded. Apart from this CS does not send any alarm or warnings for this condition(if there is a requirement for this, I can definitely add it into this feature).

To calculate the resources that are left for his/her account, user can use listAccounts API which displays the resource limits and the total resources that are being consumed by that account. In CloudStack UI, user can see the resource details under the "accounts" detailView. > Should the limits be associated with an account?
