Exceed license?

I found this topic on it, which is what I recall will happen.

BigFix License Exceeded Question?

(imported topic written by JMWright91) I am currently licensed for 1600. I am reaching that number and still have another department that has between 300 and 500 computers, I do not know for sure. If I deploy to this department I will obviously exceed my license count, possibly by over 400! I need to buy more licenses, obviously, but do not know for sure how many and it seems silly to go buy small numbers when I could make one purchase after I know what my true number (plus slack) should be. …

I believe that as systems go offline, the licenses are “released” to online systems. I could be wrong on that one though.
