Dynamic LUN expansion allow expanding multiple drives concurrently

Dynamic LUN expansion is a great option to add disk capacity to existing IBM i LPARs with external storage. The only drawback is that the IBM i internal process is single threaded and only processes one drive at a time. Current project will take over 6 days to expand disks. It would be beneficial to have option to process multiple drives concurrently.
