Portworx on Pure1 AI copilot

Pure1 AI copilot is an AI-powered capability that enables you to interact with your Portworx storage clusters using natural language. This conversational interface uses telemetry data from Portworx clusters and Pure Storage Pure1 to provide real-time insights and troubleshooting capabilities. For more information, see the AI Copilot user guide.

note

This feature requires an active Pure1 account and telemetry-enabled Portworx clusters. To enable telemetry and Pure1 integration, see Enable Pure1 integration.

Key features

Pure1 AI copilot provides insights across several key operational areas:

• Portworx fleet information: Gain fleet-wide visibility with cluster summaries, node-level details, and a breakdown of clusters by volume count. Copilot helps you understand your global storage landscape at a glance.

• Capacity and utilization: Track storage usage trends with summaries of utilization, identification of top and least utilized nodes, and detailed PVC usage statistics. These insights help you optimize resources and avoid over-provisioning.

• Cluster health: Monitor volume, cluster, and pool capacity, along with storage configuration limits, node status, and licensing information. Copilot highlights failure points such as volume resize or initialization issues and detects NFS dependencies that may impact stability.

• License management: Stay ahead of license expirations with proactive queries that reveal upcoming renewals. Copilot simplifies compliance and life-cycle planning across your fleet.

• Software versions: Ensure version consistency and audit compliance with cluster version insights. Copilot helps identify clusters that need upgrades or fall outside approved baselines.

• Documentation access: Retrieve release notes and technical documentation by using natural language. Copilot accelerates troubleshooting, configuration, and decision-making with fast, contextual answers.
