PowerScale OneFS supports SMB3 since OneFS 7.1.1, which is an expansion of the SMB2 dialect. SMB3 is by default enabled and is supported since Windows 8/Windows Server 2012. Server Message Block (SMB) Clients negotiate the SMB dialect to use in the SMB connection with SMB Server (PowerScale). The highest dialect supported by both sides is selected and used, unless the customer is using Windows 7 or earlier. The likelihood is that they are already using SMB3 given that this has become the standard for Windows clients ever since Windows 8.
