Hi,

One way of doing this would be to use cron job to request a VM at a
specific time each day. However, there would be no guarantee that the
necessary resources would be available at that time. To do this, you
would need to use advance reservations, which are supported when using
OpenNebula with the Haizea scheduler (http://haizea.cs.uchicago.edu/).
Haizea doesn't support "periodic reservations" (although it wouldn't
be too hard to add support for them), but you could mimic them by
creating individual reservations for each day.
