Azure permits association of extra VMs beyond the reserved count of a Capacity Reservation to facilitate burst and other scale-out scenarios, without the overhead of managing around the limits of reserved capacity. The only difference is that the count of VMs beyond the quantity reserved does not receive the capacity availability SLA benefit. As long as Azure has available capacity that meets the virtual machine requirements, the extra allocations will succeed.

Azure permits the association of extra VMs above the number of Capacity Reservations. These VMs are available to allow for burst and other scale-out scenarios without the limits of reserved capacity. The only difference is that the count of VMs beyond the quantity reserved doesn't receive the capacity availability SLA benefit. As long as Azure has available capacity that meets the virtual machine requirements, the extra allocation succeeds.

The Instance View of a Capacity Reservation group provides a snapshot of usage for each member Capacity Reservation. You can use the Instance View to see how overallocation works.

This article assumes you have created a Capacity Reservation group (`myCapacityReservationGroup`), a member Capacity Reservation (`myCapacityReservation`), and a virtual machine (*myVM1*) that is associated to the group. Go to [Create a Capacity Reservation](capacity-reservation-create.md) and [Associate a VM to a Capacity Reservation](capacity-reservation-associate-vm.md) for more details.
