exception is that the number of active cores is allowed to exceed the number of core usage rights

if there is a sufficient positive balance of temporary capacity. A negative balance always indicates

of the group continue to have compatible hardware as determined by the hardware grouping

rules, and the number of sharing rights installed on the GiCAP manager is equal or greater than

the total number of cores without usage rights on complexes managed by the Group Manager.
