Well I found out yesterday that it does work just fine.
I turned up my global copy level to 3, and when I opened my DSSU
properties, the "Disk staging schedule" section allowed me to create
multiple copies.

The oddity is, today, I removed the DSSU, dropped # of copies back down
to 2, tried to recreate the DSSU.....multiple copies disabled, just as
I'd expect, but when I put global copies back to 3 again, it didn't come
back.

Hmmm....
