Hello again,

So, I’ve been doing some testing of Pro features on a test stack I’ve created. In particular, use of group blob stores. Using a trial license, I created a group, played around with it, then removed my trial license. However, the group is still there. I know I won’t be able to add/remove in the group or run group-related tasks, but should the group function normally aside from that (i.e. run like a normal blob store)? (FYI I only have one member in the group.)
