ISE more than 5 PSN's with PAN and MnT on same node

I understand that when PAN and MnT are on the same node with Dedicated PSNs, the max number of dedicated PSN's is 5. But what will happen if I try to add a 6th PSN? Will the deployment break? Or will it continue to work as expected?

This is for a virtual ISE deployment and my customer has purchased 8 ISE nodes for some reason. Not sure what to do with the 8th node... 

If we go all dedicated then gives us 4 PSN's, but with PAN and MnT on same node will give us 5 PSN's + 1 spare node.

It will continue to work as this is not an enforced limit. But you'll operate your depolyment outside of the supported scope. That could (but does not have to) lead to problems when opening a TAC-case.

Thanks. That's exactly the answer I was looking for.
