VSphere reservations/limit changes requires reboot

Our operations team are advising us that while vSphere will allow you to set the reservations/limits on a running server and vSphere will reflect those changes,  the changes do not actually take effect until the server is restarted.

So effectively making the hot add ram or vcpu capabilities unusable if reservations/limits are in place on a VM.

Have any of you found this issue or ways to work around it? (We are on 6.5)

Any thoughts/insight most welcome.

thanks.
