You can reset the total quantity of a resource to a new value, add to the total quantity or subtract from it.
If the new total quantity you specify is greater than before, Batch schedules more jobs accordingly. If the new total quantity is less than before and there are no units of this resource in use, Batch just reduces the total (or available) quantity. If there are units in use, Batch reduces the available quantity immediately and, as jobs finish, Batch reduces the total (available) quantity so that it eventually arrives at the new number.
