Document CALS understanding

[kakani87]

Hi Folks ...

When we are assigning Document CALs , there is an option to check with like

No Of CALs Allocated to the document : 5 

• Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment

My understanding with this is after allocating  no of cals , if we check the allow dynamic cal and then will be able  access document dynamicaly by users.

what if we UnCheck and then proceed to add users, then only list of users added below

• Assigned Users

Will be able to access the documents ??

1. When No of Document cals assigned Exceeds (if more than 5 users access the document ) what will be the issue
2. What happens If Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment Checked
3. What happens If Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment UnChecked  

Can any one correct me with the statement where ever my assumption is wrong.

-     When No of Document cals assigned Exceeds: firsts 5 users can access the document, from sixth user are rejected.

-     What happens If Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment Checked: the Named (or Document) CALs would be assigned to users based on first come first served basis.

-      What happens If Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment UnChecked : you have to assign Named (or Document) CALs manually.

Check attached pdf for more details:

The number of Document CALs you want to assign can never exceed either

• the total number of Doc CALs available on your system, or
• the number of Doc CALs allocated to this document (the "license pool")

So whether or not you enable Dynamic CAL assignment for a particular document, Doc CALs can be assigned to a visitor either automatically by the QVS (Dyn CAL assignment enabled) or manually by an Administrator (Dyn CAL assignment disabled) as long as the number of entries in the Assigned Users overview is smaller than the value of "Document CALs allocated to this document". Meaning that you have some CALs left.

Peter - i mean to say  If exceeds scenario applicable for a document to assign with in the available CALs

lets say we have 30 CALs and assigned 5 for a document.

My intention of this is to clear what if beyond the assigned no of  CALSs/users access the document
