Nate, I can only speak to the part I left above. The statement you pulled from the documentation means multiple VCL users are not provisioned onto the same node at the same time. A node in this case could be a VM or a bare metal system, but it does not refer to a hypervisor. Many VMs are provisioned onto a single hypervisor with the hypervisor being shared by the users on the VMs, but only one user is assigned to a VM at any given time. Nodes provisioned under the Server Profiles portion of the site can have an exception to this if a user group is assigned to the reservation with the intent that the reservation is to be shared by multiple users. Does that answer the second portion of your question?
