    Is there any benefit of enabling SIOC on a datastore that's being utilized by only one VM? If there is only one VM competing for device queue slots there doesn't appear to be any need to prioritize access.

    Thanks,

    With a single VM in the entire datastore you will have no difference.

    No point, it is the only VM competing so there is no need to throttle other Hosts....
