The file system is IBM GPFS (Spectrum Scale) V5, with gateways providing NFS and CIFS connectivity. The system must provide 100Gbps Ethernet connectivity. The service should include a 5-year maintenance and support on a 24/7 basis, as well as onsite intervention when required on a next business day basis.
