Question on activating floating license on automation servers

I have a question about activating floating license on automation servers.

For example if we have 4 automation servers and our floating license only supports 4 at any time. If I activate the floating license on 4 servers then it is locked up and cannot be used by people.  Is that how it is designed, any suggestions.

 

Thanks.

    Your servers only need to be able to access the licenses at run time. The way they are designed, they will check out the license, execute the tests, then release the license back into the pool.
