For people who plan to use PufferPanel with WHMCS, or even just limit themselves to how many servers run on a single machine, my suggestion is to add a "cap" on how much of a given resource a server can use. In this case RAM and data storage.
For example. Say you add a new node to your panel, and it has say 32gb of ram, and a 250gb ssd. What this feature will do is allow you to state this resource information and limit you to that when you add the node to your panel. So in the case of WHMCS, when automated servers start rolling in. It will use 1 server till it caps at the 32gb of ram limit, then move to the next one or if a certain amount of resource isnt available on the current node, it will move to the next one (if possible) or just not allow it at all.
This could also be good to help limit overload of a server trying to share resources. Say I make a server and I dont remember how much of a given resource I have left. The panel will stop me for being able to say add 8gb of ram when I only have 6 left that I specified when adding the node. I say this, because I run two nodes now, and remembering the amount of each given resource becomes a tedious task and I assume it would for others too.

I won't implement a hard cap on nodes, because some companies to run over the defined amount of RAM, either because they are trying to cram a bunch of servers on, you they actually know what they are doing and can maximize servers correctly.
I will add the ability to set the server specs though, for WHMCS and also so you can keep track of total usage. Thanks for the suggestion.
