N9K-C9372PX / N9K-C9372TX supports break-out mode for UPLINK interfaces ?

[wim.juste]

Dear All,

Anyone knows whether Nexus 9372 (PX / TX) support break-out mode for the 4x 40GE Uplink interfaces?

Allowing to uplink the switch using 10GE interface capacity, rather then the full 40GE interface?

As stated in the documentation for 9300's modules M6PQ and M12PQ, this is not the case.
But what about Nexus 9372 (PX/TX) ?

Thank you,

Kind regards,
Wim

This reply / solution should be updated to note that some Nexus 9300 models now support breakout when running a minimum software version.  See the following page for reference:

I hope this is true, however am unable to replicate it. Am I missing something obvious here?
