Sue,

Has 7.2 changed this? Meaning, have they added intelligence to the OS
that if the units are all SSDs then it will automatically use the
increased thread support? I am holding out hope since your earlier reply
mentioned "when running 7.1 or earlier releases". Because upgrading to
7.2 sounds a lot more appealing than changing all of our access paths to
UNIT SSD. For a number of reasons like, they're primarily vendor
supplied, what if we restore to our test system which is all spinning
disks, etc.
