Autopilot in OCP on bare metal

Autopilot is a rule-based engine that responds to changes from a monitoring source. Autopilot allows you to specify monitoring conditions along with actions it should take when those conditions occur.

Autopilot Overview

With Autopilot, your cluster can react dynamically without your intervention to events such as:

  • Resizing PVCs when it is running out of capacity
  • Scaling Portworx storage pools to accommodate increasing usage
  • Rebalancing volumes across Portworx storage pools when they come unbalanced

The following sections will cover everything from installation to end-to-end examples.
