What happens to future bookings if resource capabilities are changed?

A user has a cloud encoding platform integrated in DataMiner and fully managed by DataMiner SRM, but it seems that the user will likely be downscaling some licenses on that platform. How does this impact the bookings that are already scheduled in the future, which are using these resources, and should the user be worried that bookings will suddenly fail at start time?

Note: This answer is about downscaling the SRM Concurrency license of DataMiner itself, while the original question was about downscaling the encoder licenses of the devices managed by SRM, so it is not really relevant to the question...

On a system with an SRM Concurrency license of 10, there can be 10 overlapping bookings scheduled at a given time.

If the system were then to be downgraded to an SRM Concurrency license of 5, the 10 scheduled overlapping bookings would still be scheduled. They should still start automatically.

But when you try to manually update one of these bookings, the operation will be blocked because the concurrency is more than the allowed concurrency.
In the case of such a license conflict, no quarantine will be triggered for the booking; the update is simply blocked.

You can still manually update the bookings by also changing the time of the booking to be in a time period where there are less than 5 overlapping bookings.

This also means that while the bookings should still start automatically on the server, if there are scripts triggered during the start/end/events of a booking, and these scripts want to do manual updates of the bookings, that these could fail.
