Licensing when adding new host

Hi Guys. I have a fully licensed vrealize ops manager setup which is licensed by number of cpus. I'd like to know what happens when you add another host and the cpu count changes with the addition of that host? Will there be errors or options to exclude that host until more licenses can be procured. Thanks.

If you run out of licenced CPU, additional hosts will not be monitored by vROps. When you look those hosts up, you will see that they are not licenced in a watermark style.

 

You could create licence groups to be sure to only monitor those host that are important.
